The consequence of this incident was that the nobles and wealthy merchants of the entire Penzes City lined up to come to the Viscount's Mansion to meet the Viscount!

Yes, this is no longer the time to jointly invite the Viscount, but everyone, with rich gifts, came to the Viscount's mansion, and the people who originally had the intention of bribing the guards to get some preferential treatment were depressed again, because although the two doormen saw the property and their eyes lit up, as soon as they heard that they had something to ask for, they immediately became serious, and their fierce and savage temperament reminded these people of the Penzes Knights who were still being trained fiercely. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info heart immediately cooled half, feelings, this viscount is indeed very strong, even the doorman uses those barbaric guys.

And Ling Xiao didn't see anything about the people who came to give gifts, he didn't want to leave people with a greedy impression of "expropriation and extortion" as soon as he came to Penzes City.

But Ling Xiao asked Fu Bo to privately inform some of the wealthy businessmen who had been screened out after Meng Li's investigation, most of these businessmen were from humble backgrounds, and they all climbed to today's position step by step by virtue of struggle, with a clean net worth, and a good reputation and character in the circle.

As for those knights, barons, and viscounts, Ling Xiao didn't see anything, including the generous gifts they sent, all of them couldn't even enter the door of the Viscount's Mansion.

The common people of Penzes City were now happy, and they had a new topic, and they were full of interest in this new viscount, and they saw for the first time the lord who dared to oppose the nobles of the city.

Even Earl Li Houlin, the city lord who has been operating in Penzes City for generations, has never done anything to offend all the nobles, you know, the consequences are very serious.

Although the fief is yours, as long as the people pay taxes legally, you can't just kick them out, right? Moreover, as a lord, without the support of these nobles and wealthy merchants who control more than 80% of the resources of Penzes City, I am afraid that your decree will not be carried out at all!

This society is the world of the aristocracy!

Compared with the anger of the nobles, many merchants were excited, when it came to status, the merchants were not a little worse than the nobles, and many of them were rich enough to despise an earl in terms of wealth, but in terms of social status, he was not even as good as a knight with the lowest title!

And now, this new young lord has asked the old but elegant butler to inform them that the viscount will receive them in the next few days!

This news made these wealthy grassroots people excited!

The ones who really felt the fear were the four noble lords who participated in the assassination of Ling Xiao, and they also pretended to send people to send generous gifts, the purpose of course was to confuse the public, in case the killer ...... When everyone was rejected, only the noble lords of these four families realized that this new lord already knew something, and wanted to attack them!

The purpose of killing their most beloved woman is to warn them: be honest, killing you is as simple as pinching the ants to death! Then ignore these nobles and rich businessmen, just hanging them, don't think that you have money and privileges, you can be arrogant, here, I am the boss!

Yes, now almost everyone in Penzes City, including the common people, understands who is the real boss!

Peng Zesi's city guards, all the leaders were replaced, replaced by the Viscount's own people, some well-informed, said that those people were the famous Imperial Tiger Roar commandos! Originally, they were the private soldiers of the Ling family, and when the Viscount Ling Xiao came to the fiefdom, of course their own private soldiers had to follow.

And those leaders who have been replaced, it is said that there are those who are not convinced, Lord Ling Wu, the new commander of the city guard army of Penzes City, is also a very reasonable person, let them fight with the new leader, if they win, they can continue to stay in office, and if they lose, then I'm sorry, either leave, or obediently be an ordinary soldier!

As a result, the original leaders of Penzes City were used to being pampered in the past, even if they had good strength in the past, they had long been abandoned by themselves, where was the opponent of this group of bandit-like guys from the cold land of the north of the Tiger Roar Commando, who was beaten to cry dad and mother, and finally obediently begged for mercy.

This is not the end, the Great Commander of Ling Wu is like a psychopath, who has tortured those people of the Knights, and then came to torture the original city guards, and the daily training has made those people miserable. Because Penzes City is located in the tropics, as soon as the sun rises during the day, let alone training, even if you walk in the sun, you will feel dizzy, in this case, Ling Wu is full of interest and takes them to practice bare-chested!

Let those who are dissatisfied in their hearts can't call out if they want to, and the commanders are all taking the lead in training, what do you still call it? Don't want to practice? Okay, roll up and get out! Lao Tzu's soldiers don't want to be seeded!

As a result, just because of Ling Wu's words, many soldiers who wanted to leave gritted their teeth and endured it, they were all men, and they were not one less egg than others, why should they be looked down upon?

Compared to them, all the people of the Knights of Penzes City have a new mental outlook!

When it appeared in public again, it even surprised everyone in Penzes: is this still the same Knights?

In fact, it's very simple, Ling Wu, a rough man, didn't tell them any big reason at all, only one sentence: If you don't listen to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will kill you, who dares to escape, and destroy your nine clans!

That's right, those who can become knights are actually young people with a certain background in their families, and the status of a knight symbolizes high glory, which can be said to be the highest status below the nobility! If you have the status of a nobleman and become a knight, it is even more of a status symbol. Therefore, these people were frightened by Ling Wuyi, and they all obediently chose to obey the order.

However, it is not without resistance, the former head of the knight order, a very handsome guy, is delusional to rely on his aristocratic status to suppress Ling Wu, he thinks that this group of vulgar and barbaric inferior people say that killing is just talking, because they didn't kill anyone that day, they have all surrendered, how can they kill again.

As a result, after Ling Wu finished saying the rules, he was the first to drop his helmet, claiming that his dignity could not be trampled on as a noble knight.

In fact, his dignity had been trampled on as early as the time he met Ling Wu, and even his group of knights' subordinates did not respond when he said this, a person who had long lost his chivalry was still worthy of talking about knightly dignity?

If he was given a chance to choose, then he would never be the one who provoked trouble, he had already surrendered once, would he mind the second time? Anyway, as long as he survived this time, he could quit the Knights, go home, and wait for the old man to die, and he could inherit the title of nobility with peace of mind and live his happy life.

Yes, the former leader of this knight order didn't expect that from the first sentence he contradicted Ling Wu, his fate would be doomed!

So, when his huge head rolled to the ground, his eyes were still wide open!

The blood that spurted out of Lao Gao's headless neck reflected the eyes of the thousand knights and shocked their hearts.

This vulgar and barbaric officer is by no means just talking!

"How did he die!" Ling Wu squinted his eyes, his eyes flickering as he looked at these people and asked, the entire scene of thousands of people could be heard, and people could even hear their nervous heartbeats!

"You say!" Ling Wu gestured to a knight in the front row.

"Sir, I didn't see anything!" replied the knight as he straightened up.

The chief said, answer the questions loudly, don't act like you haven't eaten.

To be able to be a knight in such a place, how can there be a person with a poor IQ, this knight reacted quite quickly, and Ling Wu was very satisfied with his answer, but he still said: "Wrong, we are here, there was a beheading thief yesterday, and his strength is ...... Very powerful, and the former leader of the Knights was killed by the beheading thief...... We should inform their families of this sad news, and as a sir, I have a duty to express my condolences to his family on behalf of the Viscount. ”

These people at the scene were silent, and none of them expressed any objections, because they all saw that this officer was not a reasonable master at all, and if he reasoned with others, he might be beaten...... But it's terrible!

"My lord, how can this matter be your responsibility?" The man who had just been pointed out by Ling Wu said boldly, "So, I will give this money to my subordinates, right?"

One hundred gold coins, that is, one hundred thousand copper plates, is quite a fortune for the commoners, but it is really not worth mentioning for these members of the Knights, who are not rich or noble.

Ling Wu touched his chin, looked at the twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young knight, and asked, "What is your name and what kind of strength are you?"

"Report to the chief, the subordinate is called Lu Feiyang, a first-order great sword master!"

The young man struggled to hide the excitement and excitement in his eyes, and the commander was willing to ask his name, apparently with other intentions, and the original head of the Knights had just been ...... by the commander Ah no, killed by a beheading thief.

Lu Feiyang's heart suddenly became hot!

"Lu Feiyang, well, this fame is pleasing to you, okay, the leader of this knight order in the future will be you!" Ling Wu waved his hand: "Start training now!"

Compared with some changes in the army of Penzes City, what has changed more is that those nobles who were originally high above are now much more honest, even the four nobles who were originally the most powerful, and now their families are also very honest, and they no longer appear in front of the civilians of Penzes City.

After some selection by Chunlan and Qiuyue, a total of more than 50 maidservants, more than 30 mothers-in-law, and more than 100 servants were purchased in the Viscount's Mansion.

Chunlan and Qiuyue's two daughters worked carefully, plus there was Ye Weini, a quirky little female thief, and the spies from various families who were mixed in the crowd were eliminated one by one, Ling Xiao was too lazy to care about these things, and Ye Weini and the others were too lazy to look for trouble, anyway, there were some accounts, and it would be too late to calculate them after the autumn.

It's just getting started, isn't it coming?

Ling Xiao hadn't seen him for more than ten days since he brought the wind chimes back that day, and he had been discussing with Fu Bo how to improve his strength as soon as possible.

Individual strength always takes time and cannot be achieved overnight, but overall strength, in Fauber's view, is more important than personal strength!

If it weren't for the five hundred private soldiers that Ling Zhi gave to Ling Xiao, they would be even more passive at the moment! They can't do everything themselves, right?

Moreover, compared to those hidden families, Ling Xiao's strength, and even the strength of the Ling family, are too weak, although the combat power of the Tiger Roar Commando is strong, it is also aimed at ordinary martial artists, if the other party is like Fu Bo, or the senior brother of the wind chime, the role of the Tiger Roar Commando is obviously not reflected.

Therefore, expanding the strength around you is a top priority!

Ling Xiao's magical ability to refine the pill was considered by Fu Bo to be the biggest capital to gather talents!

Fu Bo even thought that if those super sects of the hidden family knew that Ling Xiao had this ability, they would probably have come to woo or coerce to rob people!

Fu Bo's words also made Ling Xiao feel a little faintly worried, if he couldn't improve his strength as soon as possible, I was afraid that even his family would not be able to protect him at that time...... Similarly, if the family can't improve their strength as soon as possible, they will also become a burden to Ling Xiao at that time!

There is only one way, and that is to have the strength to make everyone dare not act rashly! Whoever dares to bully my family, I will let him suffer a catastrophe!

Ling Xiao walked to the courtyard of the wind chime, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a melodious sound of the piano, Ling Xiao did not understand the rhythm, but he could also hear the resentment contained in the sound of the piano, and the slightest hint of killing seemed to be aimed at him, the master. Standing at the door, after listening intently for a while, Ling Xiao comprehended something from it, the sword skill of the wind chime, I am afraid that it is related to this rhythm!

When the sword skill was displayed, it could actually emit a charming and pleasant wind chime, giving people the feeling of a desert in front of them, and then hundreds of wind chimes were hung, which were blown by the breeze, and the jingling sound seemed to appear next to Ling Xiao's ears again.

Ling Xiao turned around and left, in a world where he could have such sword skills, he really wouldn't be lonely!

The Shushan Sword School, from ancient times to the present, has studied swordsmanship for hundreds of thousands of years, and has almost developed all the swordsmanship that can be developed to the extreme, but there has never been such a thing, otherwise, why is Ling Xiao, a guy with thousands of swordsmanship in his head, so interested in the swordsmanship of that wind chime?

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Ling Xiao's mouth, play, play, your sword skills, sooner or later, it will be mine!
