Chapter 871: The Secret of Blackwater Town

After we were ready, we said goodbye to Feng Jun and galloped in the direction next door to Suwu.

After driving for nearly an hour, we have moved away from the urban area of Lancheng City, and a vast Gobi Desert has gradually appeared in sight.

As far as the eye can see, there are only large areas of gray-brown gravel, which are vast and lonely spread on the boundless earth, and there is no living creature in sight, giving people a sense of depression and sadness.

In our opinion, this kind of place is not suitable for animals and plants, let alone humans.

Unexpectedly, after continuing for nearly an hour, a low house appeared in front of me, standing on the vast Gobi Desert.

This is the only way to get into Ganzhou, so we didn't stop and wanted to go straight through this desolate village.

Unexpectedly, when the jeep just drove to the entrance of the village, it was stopped by a strong man.

These men were shirtless, tattered, and dark-skinned, carrying shovels, hoes, and other farm tools in their hands, and their faces were vicious.

When they saw our car appear, they quickly rushed over and surrounded us.

"Who dares to come to our Blackwater Town!"

The first man, with a white towel on his head, yelled at us.

"Brother, don't get me wrong!"

Opening the car window, I put on a harmless smile at the group of strong men.

"A few of us are here to explore, and if we accidentally don't enter the treasure land, we want to spend a day, and I hope my brother can agree."

The strong man snorted coldly: "Hmph, in this extraordinary period, the official family is fighting against the Jin family, do you still dare to come here?" ”

"It's not impossible to stay with us, but you have to answer me a question first."

I quickly said, "Yes, whatever you want to ask, just ask." ”

"Well, I'll ask you,"

The man wearing a towel said sharply: "Do you support the official family or the Jin family?" ”

"Well...... this"

I rolled my eyes and replied quickly: "Several of us support the Jin family!" ”

The man's pupils shrank as he wore a towel: "What you said is true?" ”

"Of course, why lie to you?"

I quickly explained: "In the past, when I was in school, I didn't have the money to pay for tuition, but it was the Jin family's company that supported a public welfare fund, which allowed me to successfully complete my university. ”

"Therefore, I am always grateful to the Jin family."

At this time, Bai Ze and several people also reacted and spoke one after another, saying that they had received the favor of the Jin family and had always regarded the Jin family as their benefactors.

Sure enough, listening to us standing in line with the Jin family, the fierceness on the faces of these strong men gradually disappeared, and the man wearing the towel even put on a smiling face.

"Several, you can support the Jin family at this time, you are truly trustworthy friends, we are welcome to Blackwater Town!"

Seeing that the other party was no longer hostile, we got out of the car and walked after the man wearing the towel and walked towards the town.

I heard the man introduce himself and say that his name is Wang Li and he is the acting mayor of Heishui Town.

Although Heishui is nominally a town, there are only two or three hundred households living here, not even as many as a village in the eastern provinces.

Blackwater Town is already under the control of the Jin family, so there is no doubt that the townspeople here have also been brainwashed by the Jin family, thinking that the Jin family is the savior of the people and their benefactors.

Now, someone must be secretly persecuting the Jin family, which is why the Jin family has been targeted by the government.

As for these people, they will firmly support the Jin family to the end.

"Brother Wang, the people of Blackwater Town support the Jin family so much, they must have received a lot of favors from the Jin family just like me, right?"

I asked deliberately without words.

Along the way, I saw very clearly that the houses in this town of Blackwater were in dilapidation, the people were living in difficulty, many people could not even wear clothes, and the conditions were quite difficult.

And under such difficult conditions, there must be some reason why the people of Blackwater Town still support the Jin family so firmly.

I really want to know, what did the Jin family rely on to brainwash these people so thoroughly that they were willing to die for themselves?

"Of course, without the Jin family, there would be no Blackwater Town!"

Faced with my question, Wang Li raised his chin and said with a grateful face.

"Five kilometers behind our Heishui Town, there is a Heishui ditch, which is the only water source on the Gobi Desert, and it is also the key to the survival of our Heishui Town people."

"It's just that five years ago, a water monster appeared in the black water ditch and swept away many people who went to fetch water."

"Heishuigou is our only source of water, and without this water source, we can only wait for death, so even if we know that there are monsters in the water, we can only fight hard to fetch water."

"In this way, in less than a year, more than 100 townspeople were swept away by the water pipe, all of them were devoured by that monster, and there was not even a single bone residue left!"

"Everyone was about to despair, but at this time, the Jin family sent a disciple of their family to beat the monster away, so that we could continue to survive."

"You say, can we not be grateful to the Jin family?"

I asked again, "Now that the monster has been solved, you should have no trouble in Blackwater Town, why are you still in such a decline?" ”

I couldn't help asking, "Along the way, I saw that many houses were empty, and the original head of the household was gone?" ”

"Friend, you don't know anything."

Wang Li sighed and said: "The children of the Jin family said that Heishuigou is a place to raise fierce people, even if he destroys a monster, it won't be long before new monsters will breed and cannot be cut off." ”

"If you want to solve this problem completely, you can only move your family and leave Blackwater Town."

"However, those of us who have lived here for generations, where can we go without Blackwater?"

"Therefore, now the Jin family will send a family member every month to check the situation in Heishuigou for us, and if a monster appears, he will destroy it as soon as possible."

"In order to repay the kindness of the Jin family, we will pay tribute to the Jin family with a share of the quarterly income."

It sounds familiar.

I frowned, and I couldn't help but think, wasn't Ding Busan of the Shangqing faction also threatened the people under the mountain by raising ghosts, so that they could pay tribute to themselves?

From this point of view, the method adopted by the Jin family is exactly the same as that of Na Ding Busan, which is to control these poor people by raising self-respect, raising monsters, and selling their lives for themselves!

It's hateful to play with these poor townspeople for the sake of their own family's selfish interests!

Listening to Wang Li's narration, I clearly felt that Bai Ze and the others couldn't help but clench their fists, and their eyes were almost bursting with fire!
