Chapter 449: Miasma Strikes
"Brother Lu, there is Bishui City in front of you, are we going to enter the city...... Hey? Why are there so many Miao guards at the city gates?"
Galloping all the way, Lu Hanjiang and his entourage rushed to Miao Jiang at the fastest speed, and outside Bishui City, Gongsun Cheng saw many Miao people holding blades at the city gate, and couldn't help but be suspicious.
Although Bishui City is the gateway to the Miao land, it is still under the rule of the imperial court on the surface, and the Miao people are responsible for guarding it at this moment, which is strange enough in itself.
"The situation here is special, don't doubt it, let's go into the city."
There was no surprise on Lu Hanjiang's face, the Xiangyun business had already made a return, they needed to do their best to control the city so that the flow of people who suddenly went crazy would not be allowed to run, and they couldn't expose the identity of the Jinyi Guard, so the work of the city defense requisitioned some Miao people for deployment.
These Miao people are also the elites of all ethnic groups, and it just so happens that there are riots everywhere in Miaodi, and many Miao people simply temporarily moved to Bishui City, and Xiangyun Business can be regarded as making the best use of it.
As soon as Lu Hanjiang's side approached, those Miao people stepped forward to stop them, and one of them looked at them seriously and said, "Your Excellency...... Is it the leader of the beggar gang? Please stop, there is an order to guard and no outsiders are allowed to enter."
When the man saw the dog-beating stick on Lu Hanjiang's waist, he immediately stopped him with a serious expression, looking at the lines on his clothes, this Miao person is a member of the Lingyue Clan.
The beggars and the Lingyue clan have long had grievances, and Yan Fengyun has been stumbling in Miao Di for several months, and the two sides can be said to be enemies when they meet.
Although after Lu Seventeen took the throne, he slowly repaired the relationship with Miao Jiang, the first thing is to admit all the blame, and then put all the fault on the dead Yan Fengyun.
In this way, although the Miao people have grievances, but the beggars have a good attitude of admitting their mistakes, and Yan Fengyun, the core of the contradiction, is also dead, people die like lights going out, and past grievances will pass away with the wind.
But this is the truth, and whether everyone recognizes it in their hearts or not, that's another matter.
At least for the Miao people of the Lingyue Clan, the beggars are still unwelcome guests.
The matter was urgent, and Lu Hanjiang didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he directly showed the token of the Xiangyun firm: "This son was invited here by the Xiaoyun firm."
At this moment, the people from Xiangyun Business also arrived, all of them were Jinyiwei's own people, and they immediately stepped forward to welcome Lu Hanjiang and his party into the city.
Gongsun Cheng and the others were obviously extremely surprised, they never expected that this Lu Seventeen would have this kind of relationship with the Xiangyun business in Miaodi, it seems that the power of this beggar gang is far more complicated than on the surface.
Of course, these can only temporarily fool these young people, in the eyes of the old rivers and lakes, it is naturally full of loopholes, such as Miao Jiang, the great elder.
"Master Lu, it's been a long time......
I haven't seen her for a long time, and the Great Elder of Miao Jiang looks even older than before, maybe it's because of the chaos in Miao Di these days that she is a little powerless.
The Great Elder looked at Lu Hanjiang with a complicated expression and said, "Lu Eleven, Lu Seventeen...... The old body really doesn't understand, which one is your real identity, I heard that the newly appointed Jinyi Wei Zhenfu is also surnamed Lu."
"A name is just a code name, the Great Elder can call me anything if he wants."
Lu Hanjiang said freely: "Don't hide it from the Great Elder, I have some connection with that Lord Lu, I and him are both from the Lu family, so can the elder understand?"
"Understood," the Great Elder sighed lightly and said, "The old body won't ask about the Jinyi Guard and the imperial court, but how did you become the leader of the beggar gang?"
Lu Hanjiang stood with his hands in his hands, and pretended to be profound: "The old gang leader Liang is a person who understands the general situation, I explained the stakes to him, and for the future of the beggar gang, he chose to gamble on this son."
"That's the case, I didn't expect that Liang Lao'er's stubborn donkey-like temper would be moved by what you said, which is really surprising......
The Great Elder did not doubt this, in the final analysis, it was Liang Benlang's strong martial arts image that was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no one would have thought that Jin Yiwei and Lu Hanjiang would be able to occupy the magpie's nest silently...... Except for the crown princess.
Having said that, this is also a matter of other families, and the Great Elder did not take it seriously
, she has already made up her mind to cooperate with the Loose Faction, and naturally she will also stand on the side of Jinyiwei.
The Great Elder just sighed for a moment that the years had passed, and the sorrows of those old people were quickly left behind by her, and the most important thing at this moment was Miao Jiang.
"Miaodi is in turmoil, and I have to ask adults to help." The Great Elder solemnly pleaded with Lu Hanjiang.
"Great Elder, don't worry, this son is here for this matter."
Lu Hanjiang held his hand and asked in a deep voice: "The letters come and go, and I can't understand anything, my son is in a hurry, and I don't know what the situation is here, please tell the Great Elder bluntly."
"Ugh."
The Great Elder sighed faintly, tapped his crutches on the ground, and said with remorse, "Everything is caused by greed, and we ignorant fanatics are clever ourselves, which has led to today's tragedy."
Lu Hanjiang frowned: "How do you say this?"
The Great Elder sighed for a long time, and told everything eloquently: "Everything has to start with the Valley of Death, after the death of the Hundred Poison Weng, that valley will be vacant, because it is not far from our clan's land, some people in the clan want to take down this valley, and it can also be used to grow medicinal herbs and maintain Gu worms in the future."
Lu Hanjiang listened and said puzzledly: "The Death Valley is located in a big mountain, the transportation is inconvenient, and it is useless for the imperial court to take it, besides, the imperial court has already made it clear that the soil of the Miao land can be discussed by the Miao people, and I don't know what is difficult about this little thing."
"If it's just a valley, it's fine, but the problem is, that valley is really special."
The Great Elder sighed again in annoyance, looked at Lu Hanjiang and said, "I think Lu Gongzi doesn't know yet, that Hundred Poison Man is actually a formation master in addition to using poison."
"Oh? Is that so?" In this regard, Lu Hanjiang was not very surprised, after all, after knowing that the Hundred Poison Weng was also from the Freedom Sect, he would not be surprised by how much ability this old man had.
Speaking of this, the Great Elder's eyes drooped, with a bit of memory in his eyes, and he said with some amusement: "Everyone in the world thinks that the best thing for a hundred poisoners is to use poison, but in fact, what that old man is best at is actually the formation."
It is also emotional, in the eyes of the world, from the strange doctor who cures diseases and saves people to the hundred poisoners who kill people, his ability is manifested in his medical skills and poison skills, whether it is a friend or an enemy, they all think that this is his ability to settle down.
And in fact, the medical skills and poison paths are all small ways for a hundred poisons to be idle and have nothing to do, and his real housekeeping skills are actually formations, even if he can't talk about those who come after him, he is almost close to the level of no one who has never been seen before.
"So he's a great man." Lu Hanjiang shook his head.
The Great Elder slowly recalled: "Speaking of which, the name of the Dead Valley was still given by the Hundred Poison Man, a few decades ago, that valley was full of miasma, and ordinary people couldn't even get close, it was he who opened up the passage into the valley, and used the formation to control the miasma so that it would not leak out, which made this valley really appear in the eyes of the world."
Speaking of this, the Great Elder was silent for a while, and then said, "It is said that the predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade, and the Hundred Poison Weng had no relatives and no reason with my Lingyue Clan, so the people of my clan were too greedy, but I never thought that the formation set by the Hundred Poison Weng would be invalid."
"The Great Elder said so, could it be that the riot in the seedling field this time was caused by the leakage of miasma in the valley. But it's good, how can the formation be ...... Wait a minute, what formation?"
When Lu Hanjiang said this, his heart suddenly jumped, and a long-term memory came to his heart, and an inaccurate conjecture appeared in his heart.
