After the carriage entered the territory of South County.

Mo Jun soon saw through the car window the tragic situation of Nanjun.

Although the former Nanjun was a remote county in the Qin State, before that, the Nanjun was the capital of the Chu State, and the place that can be selected as the capital by a country naturally cannot be a barren and barren area.

Therefore, in the past, the civilians of Nanjun did not dare to say that they lived a prosperous life, but at least they had no worries about food and clothing.

However, as far as the eye can see, the whole South County is full of mud. What was once a field has now turned into puddles. All kinds of crops withered and drooped in the water, and some simply left a pole standing in the puddle.

All the way.

Countless farmers trampled on paddy fields, desperately trying to salvage the few crops left.

In some of the fields, the crops were so flooded that there was not even a grain left, and only the old farmer sat alone on the muddy ridge, staring blankly at the scene in front of him, his face full of despair.

Mo Jun, who was sitting in the carriage, was silent.

The so-called various natural and man-made disasters, although Mo Jun, who is a man in two lifetimes, has heard many cases, but this is the first time he has seen it with his own eyes.

In fact, the flood in Nanjun is not a real large-scale disaster, but even if it is just such a small and medium-sized disaster, falling on the head of an individual, it is enough to destroy hundreds of families in an instant.

"Black Feather, speed up and rush back to Yingdu."

"Yes, sir."

Compared to Mo Jun's silence at the moment, Hei Yu's expression was much calmer, perhaps because he had already seen countless similar situations.

When he used to follow Ji Wuye's side, even Hei Yu had obeyed Ji Wuye's orders and created such a disaster with his own hands.

The carriage picks up.

Half a day later.

Mo Jun returned to Yingdu.

As the former capital of the Chu State, the impact of this flood on Yingdu is not too great, but even so, when Mojun's carriage enters Yingdu, he can also see the previously calm Yingdu, which has become much more chaotic.

A large number of victims huddled in the corners of the city wall like beggars, and groups of officers and soldiers came and went in the streets, maintaining law and order in Yingdu.

"Your Excellency, you're finally back!"

Seeing Mo Jun's carriage stop in front of the county guard's mansion, Zhanqin was as if he had seen the backbone of the main body, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted him.

At this moment, the outside of the county guard mansion is also quite chaotic, before Mo Jun returns, Zhanqin has already set up a shed for food and porridge, barely maintaining order, but this is only a temporary measure after all.

If it weren't for the fact that there are more than 500 black-armored soldiers guarding the county guard mansion all year round, even if there is a riot outside now, it is not impossible.

"How's it going?"

After getting out of the carriage, Mo Jun didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

"The damage caused by the floods is okay now, and it has basically only flooded the farmland, and there has not been much loss of personnel. But ······"

Halfway through speaking, Zhanqin hesitated, then looked at Mo Jun and said, "But now Nanjun can't buy food." ”

Mo Jun paused, frowned, and said, "Is it the ghosts of those families?" ”

Zhanqin nodded and said, "That's right." Since the flood, grain merchants in the entire southern county have sat on the ground and raised prices, and in just two or three days, grain prices have skyrocketed more than ten times in an instant. ”

"Although a message has been sent to Xiong Da and Xiong Er to prepare food from the other six countries, the food will not be able to enter Nanjun in the short term."

"Heh~~"

When Mo Jun heard this, he immediately laughed angrily and said, "This is really feng shui in turn!" I didn't expect what happened in Nanyang, and I came to Nanjun in a blink of an eye. ”

Perhaps seeing the anger in Mo Jun's heart, Zhanqin hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "In addition, General Meng also sent General Li Xin over. ”

"Are you here to help Nanjun with disaster relief?" Mo Jun asked.

"Not exactly, although the specific situation has not been inquired about yet, it must be related to the Chu State, because of this flood, the Nanjun side is only the marginal area of the disaster, and the Chu State is the hardest hit area."

Hearing this, Mo Jun's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he strode into the county guard's mansion.

And just when he walked into the county guard's mansion, he saw a figure wearing a cloud cirling fairy skirt, a black hair shawl hanging down, a green ribbon tied at the back of his head, crystal skin, and a slender figure, like a milk swallow in his arms, into Mo Jun's arms.

"Brother Mojun, you're finally back!"

The person who can do this kind of behavior in the entire county guard is naturally only Jian Ling'er.

Looking at Jian Ling'er, who hadn't seen him for a year and was about to grow to his shoulder-height height, Mo Jun's originally tense expression was also slightly relaxed, revealing a gentle smile.

"It's Ling'er! Have you followed your father to learn swordsmanship this year? ”

"Of course, in the future, Ling'er must create a world-famous 'famous sword' for Brother Mojun." Jian Ling'er's little head arched a few times in Mo Jun's arms, and then raised his little head and said seriously.

Mo Jun smiled and said, "Okay, then Brother Mo Jun is waiting for the 'famous sword' forged by Ling'er." ”

There are two inheritance skills in the Imperial Sword Gate, which are Imperial Sword Technique and Sword Casting Technique.

Originally, Jian Jiuyuan hoped that Jian Ling'er would learn the art of imperial swordsmanship, not for inheritance, but to master a little self-protection in the future.

After all, Jian Ling'er was born to Jian Jiuyuan's old son, and in the past ten years, Jian Jiuyuan himself has accumulated a body of dark injuries.

So at first, even Jian Jiuyuan himself didn't know how long he would live, in order to prevent Jian Ling'er from encountering accidents after his death, Jian Jiuyuan had been teaching Jian Ling'er to learn 'Imperial Sword Technique' a long time ago.

However, perhaps because of her talent, Jian Ling'er didn't learn much about 'Imperial Sword Technique', but she learned a bit of the essence of 'Sword Casting Technique'.

Just after joining Mo Jun's command, Mo Jun secretly gave Jian Jiuyuan a little [Life Crystal], and the medicine ghost used the great tonic elixir to prepare a potion to heal Jian Jiuyuan's injuries, so that the dark wounds in Jian Jiuyuan's body gradually healed, and even the phenomenon of 'reverse growth' appeared.

No worries from the past.

Jian Jiuyuan also no longer forced Jian Ling'er to learn 'Imperial Sword Technique', but concentrated on teaching Jian Ling'er 'Sword Casting Technique'.

"Ling'er, don't be rude."

Just when Jian Ling'er was arching and coquettish in Mo Jun's arms like a little pig, a stern reprimand suddenly came from behind him.

Mo Jun looked up and found that the person who came was none other than Jian Jiuyuan.

Today's Jian Jiuyuan is no longer the image of the 'vicissitudes of life old peasant' when he first came, the original white hair has become the current long gray hair, and the back of the sword is straightened again, although there is only one arm, but the whole person looks like a long sword in the sheath, calm and sharp.

From an outsider's point of view, the change in Jian Jiuyuan is as incredible as 'rejuvenation'.

But in fact, this is the image that Jian Jiuyuan should have, after all, Jian Jiuyuan is only in his forties this year, and his original appearance like rotten wood is completely caused by years of fugitive and too much overdraft.

"Slightly slightly~~~"

Hearing Jian Jiuyuan's reprimand, Jian Ling'er was not only not afraid, but instead shrank behind Mo Jun and grimaced at Jian Jiuyuan.

Seeing this, a trace of doting and helplessness flashed in Jian Jiuyuan's eyes.

Loving fathers have many defeated children.

Jian Jiuyuan naturally understands this truth.

But Jian Ling'er has suffered so much behind her since she was born, and it can be said that she has not lived a day of stability. Now that he has finally settled down, how can Jian Jiuyuan bear to be reprimanded.

Even if Jian Jiuyuan had tried very hard to pretend to be 'stern', if he really wanted to be 'ruthless', Jian Jiuyuan would not be able to do it at all.

"Ling'er is rude, I hope your forgiveness."

As a last resort, Jian Jiuyuan, the old father, could only 'apologize on behalf of his daughter' and said to Mo Jun.

Mo Jun smiled and said, "It's okay, Ling'er is lively by nature, and the sword seniors don't have to care." Is Fuchu still stable recently? ”

"At the beginning of the adult's departure, there were occasionally some small thieves sneaking in the county guard's mansion, and later it may be because they found that the adult was not in the mansion, and there were many fewer people in the rivers and lakes. However, the [Medicine Garden] where the Medicine Ghost Master is located often has uninvited guests coming and going. ”

"Heh~~ Those guys are really not giving up!"

Mo Jun sneered, now the people in the rivers and lakes are basically only interested in Mo Jun's head, and those who can be interested in the [Medicine Garden], except for those few families in the entire Nanjun, I am afraid that no one else knows that there is also a [Medicine Garden] in Mo Jun's back garden.

It's a pity that the medicine ghost has been searching for herbs all over the world for 20 years, and if he didn't have any means, it is estimated that he would have already known where to hang it.

I chatted with Jian Jiuyuan for a few words.

It didn't take long.

Mo Jun met Li Xin in the lobby.

"General Lee!"

"Lord Mo!"

Li Xin and Mo Jun are also acquaintances, so after the two greeted each other, they stopped being polite and went straight to the point.

"What is the important reason for General Li to come this time?"

"Lord Mo, we have received information that the people of the four major clans of Nanjun are now secretly raising food and planning to send it to Chu State for disaster relief. Now General Meng has temporarily blocked the border because of the urgency of the war. ”

Mo Jun was about to raise the teacup with his hand for a slight pause, and a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and said, "Is this news accurate?" ”

Li Xin said: "Nine times out of ten. ”

To say that the people of the four major clans took the initiative to send grain to the Chu State, Mo Jun did not believe it, after all, although this group of people was the old nobles of the Chu State, they were also a group of unprofitable guys.

So the biggest possibility is that someone asked them to do this, and at the moment, the entire Qin State is qualified and has the right to order the people of the four major clans, except for the 'Empress Dowager of Chu State' in Xianyang Palace, Mo Jun can't think of anyone else.

"That person is really concerned about his mother's affairs!"

Mo Jun sneered, and then said coldly: "What did General Meng say? ”

Li Xin said: "There is that one to take care of above, and the behavior of the four major clans itself does not violate the law, so we can't stop them from the surface. ”

"General Meng means that it's best to start from the covers·······"

Before Li Xin's words fell, he saw Mo Jun interrupt with a wave of his hand: "No need. Trouble General Li to dispatch a bunch of men, and I'll take care of the rest!" ”

When Li Xin heard Mo Jun's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed slightly: "Lord Mo, don't be impulsive, although the behavior of the four major clans is despicable, but hoarding goods, transnational business is not considered to be a violation of the laws of the Qin State, if you act impulsively, it is easy to suffer backlash." ”

Mo Jun sneered: "Don't worry! Master Lee. I didn't say I was going to settle this account with these people! ”
