Chapter 57: Why hasn't the king come back yet?

The Taoist next to Ma Bijin, named Wang Daoyi, comes from Gushu Mountain.

Because I heard that Zhong Nanshan is the place where Yin Zhenren attained enlightenment, he specially took his disciples to find immortals and asked, and happened to pass by Xuanyang City, and heard that the government was recruiting capable people to help kill demons and demons, so he went to understand the situation.

[Yin Xi, the person who greeted Lao Tzu in Zhong Nanshan. After Yin Zhenren became an immortal, Lao Jun awarded him the jade book Jinwen, Mr. Wenshi, the title of the supreme real person, the prime minister of Yuqing, one of the four phases of Tianfu. 】

After showing a few hands in front of Ma Bijin, the current situation appeared.

Ma Bi is the head of the road, and the former and the long are respectful to Wang Daoyi, this group of masters.

Wang Daoyi heard that Ma Bijin was worried about their strength, so he said very heartily: "Hahahaha! Master Ma, don't worry. The seven disciples of the Poor Dao, all of them are already in the Ning Dan Realm, and they belong to the middle-level stage of attracting Qi into the body, and the exercises are also authentic to the Daomen.

The monsters who have just transformed and learned the exercises, let alone three, even if they are doubled by two or three times, the poor Dao disciples can deal with it.

What's more, isn't there still a poor road to support it. ”

As he spoke, Wang Daoyi motioned for one of the disciples to show his hand again.

I saw that as soon as this disciple pinched the trick, a flame condensed in the air.

Immediately after, the disciple threw the flames into the ground not far away!

The ground was instantly charred and blackened.

Ma Bijin was overjoyed when he saw this.

At the same time, he also has more confidence in Wang Daoyi and his party.

However, he quickly said worriedly: "Dao Chief, if you go this time and look for the monster to no avail, if after the Dao Leader leaves, the monster will resurge, won't Xuanyang City become a purgatory on earth?" ”

Wang Daoyi touched his long beard and said with a smile: "Master Ma doesn't have to worry, although the purpose of this trip is Zhong Nanshan, but it also has the intention of training, staying in Xuanyang City for a year and a half is not a problem." If it has been a year and a half, those few shape-shifting demons still haven't appeared, it is estimated that they will either die or have already left for the rest of the country. ”

Even the last worries are gone, Ma Bijin has no worries at all: "This is very good!" So much better! There is no need to worry about eating, drinking, living and traveling, and the official must make proper arrangements for you! Without further ado, this official will take you to Lijia Village to have a look. ”

……

Meanwhile.

The entrance of Lijia Village.

A group of officials, about twenty or thirty people, are now all gathered at the entrance of Lijia Village.

Although they didn't do anything to the villagers, their tone was very unkind, and they scolded the village chief: "My lord has a life, quickly hand over your tax arrears!" Otherwise, they will all be arrested and sent back to prison! ”

The village chief hunched his back and hurriedly explained: "Lord Guancha, isn't the tax of our Lijia Village exempted this season?" Why do you have to pay it again? ”

Li Jincheng also stood up a little eagerly and said, "That's right, Lord Guancha." This is what the county lord personally promised, will there be any misunderstanding among the officials? ”

The official led by the official pushed Li Jincheng away and shouted, "Misunderstanding? What a misunderstanding! There is no basis for the words, you said that the county lord agreed, then agreed? Who knows if you, a yellow-mouthed kid, are talking nonsense here?

In short, Uncle Ben doesn't care! Today, you have to pay this grain if you don't pay it in Lijia Village! And you have to pay 20% more than before! Otherwise, leave us alone! ”

Li Jincheng, who was pushed to the ground, was deeply shocked.

How so?

How can the government go back on its word?

Although the credit for tax exemption was taken away by Zhao Lei, as long as the villagers benefited, why not if he Li Jincheng was wronged?

But the tiger demon has only been gone for half a month, and the government will not admit it.

This is really a big blow to Li Jincheng, who has always been upright.

As a result, he was pushed to the ground, his palms were broken, and he didn't feel pain, and he sat there like a lost soul, doubting his life.

At this moment, Ma Bijin, Wang Daoyi and his seven apprentices also came to the scene.

Seeing that Ma Bijin was coming, all the officials stepped forward and said respectfully: "My lord! ”

Ma Bijin let out a casual 'um', but his attention was actually paying attention to Wang Daoyi's reaction all the time.

Because when they came from afar, they happened to see the scene when Li Jincheng was pushed down.

Seeing Wang Daoyi frowning, Ma Bijin immediately explained: "Dao Chief, let you see a smile." It is the lack of strict discipline of the officials. But this can't be helped, because the villagers here have been confused by the monsters. They only care about themselves, and they don't care about other people's lives or deaths.

It is important to know that only when there is a country can there be a home.

The hundreds of people in the royal city waited for this food to save their lives, but they still delayed again and again......"

After seeing the situation around Xuanyang City.

Comparing the situation in Lijia Village, in fact, Wang Daoyi has already believed in Ma Bijin's words as many as seven or eight times.

After all, all I saw along the way were ordinary people who were poorly clothed and hungry.

Conversely, what about Lijia Village?

One by one, they were dressed in thick furs, their faces were radiant and their faces were ruddy.

If it weren't for the monsters, how could the difference be so big?

Wang Daoyi waved his hand: "Poor Dao understands, I believe they are also temporarily confused by monsters." I hope that the adults will get enough food, and not hurt them. ”

Seeing that the Taoist chief was so 'sensible', Ma Bijin smiled happily: "Please rest assured at this level, I will order you to go down and let the officials be polite to the villagers when they collect grain." ”

Wang Daoyi smiled at this time: "Good." ”

Then Ma Bijin turned his head and scolded the officials: "Did you hear that!" Try to be courteous to the people when you collect grain! ”

"Yes, sir!"

Subsequently, the officials began to ignore the resistance of the villagers and wanted to break into the village to grab food.

"My lord, you can't do this~!"

"This is what the king assigned us!"

"You have stolen the food, how should we live?"

"King~~! King~~! Where are you? Why haven't you come back? ”

"If you don't come back, your hard work in Lijia Village during this time will be gone~!"

"Nope! You can't pass! If you want to enter the village to grab food, then you can only step on my Li Ergou's corpse! ”

Seeing that the villagers did not want to die, they prevented the official from entering the village.

Wang Daoyi frowned.

It was the first time he had ever seen a mortal defend a youkai like that.

It seems that the bewilderment of those monsters is indeed not to be underestimated.

When dealing with youkai later, be sure to remind your disciples to be careful of each other's bewilderment techniques.

Just when the two sides were in a state of dispute, there was a sudden noise in the mountains and forests in the distance. The noise sounded like a galloping horse.

The birds and beasts in the mountains and forests were all frightened and fled wildly.

Everyone subconsciously stopped moving.

All looked at the noise.

Immediately afterwards, I saw the dust in the mountains and forests, and the leaves and branches were flying.

It didn't take long to see a group of monsters running out of the forest......
