Chapter 207: Provocation in front of the Black Wind Hall
Li Qiucian took the herb handed by Ye Chong.
Ye Chong didn't delay any longer, and said, "You heal your injuries first, and I'll wait for you outside the door." β
He turned and walked out of the door, leaning the rotten door back against the eaves, shielding it tightly.
Ye Chong sat down under the eaves, and with his other hand, he was still holding a few steamed buns that he had just received from Huishanquan, and he ate them one bite at a time.
The situation on Heifeng Mountain was a little different from what he expected, and in the past two years, it was Li Qiucian who was on the mountain.
This group of people said that they were bandits, but in fact, they had long since stopped doing those murderous and overselling things, and in fact they were no different from the homeless people.
And nearly two thousand people, even if they eat steamed buns at every meal, it is indeed a lot of money, after all, Li Qiucian has only been out of the sword mound for a few years, she is not the kind of woman who grew up in a merchant family like Bamboo Rouge, if you want to get enough silver taels to feed so many people, I am afraid you have to rely on selling force.
Ye Chong didn't know what Li Qiucian did every time he left Black Wind Mountain and went to Chu State, but it must be an extremely secret thing, and it was impossible to make money openly and honestly, and then bring it to these homeless people who had no source of livelihood.
"Bandits?"
Ye Chong remembered the two words that Lu Yuanba described to himself, and he only smiled helplessly in his heart, this group of people is really not a bandit.
However, since Li Qiucian chose them, then the Split Cloud Array Diagram must be used on them, Ye Chong didn't know how powerful the Split Cloud Array was, but he wouldn't question Li Qiuchan's judgment.
Li Qiucian wants to rely on this group of people to deal with the Dongfang family and avenge himself, so he will naturally not be sloppy in this kind of matter.
Therefore, Ye Chong at this time would not underestimate the combat effectiveness of this group of people on the mountain.
In this way, their lives are now in embarrassment, which is not a bad thing for Ye Chong.
Although it is a bit unkind to think so, if they really have big fish and meat every day, and their lives are extremely comfortable, Ye Chong is afraid that it will be really difficult to convince them to go to the battlefield with him.
People in this world believe in the truth that the law of the jungle is the strong, and if you want to have more, you must give more.
Ye Chong believes that no one is willing to eat steamed buns and pickles every day, be a nominal bandit here, and fall for the rest of his life.
Since Li Qiucian relied on them to use the Split Cloud Array Diagram, he should have given some promises and benefits, but it would only be realized after the Dongfang Family was destroyed.
The Dongfang family is so powerful, not only in the Chu State, but also in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, the fame is loud enough.
In contrast, it is more within reach to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and fight for the rest of his life.
Thinking of this, Ye Chong had a little confidence in his heart, what he originally thought was very difficult, but after gradually knowing and understanding here, it didn't seem to be really difficult to achieve.
Of course, the first step for me to do is to establish my prestige on this Black Wind Mountain.
"I just don't know if I can get alchemy here. Ye Chong finished eating the steamed buns, burped, and looked up at the sky.
I don't know that on the battlefield thousands of miles away, my father can still reproduce the majesty of many years ago.
"Time is too tight. I couldn't help but sigh.
Just as his thoughts drifted to the battlefield thousands of miles away, suddenly several figures appeared in front of the Black Wind Hall.
A young man with a long figure and also wrapped in coarse cloth clothes, but with an extraordinary bearing in his gestures, and two middle-aged men with sallow faces, came to him together.
The young man at the head glanced at Ye Chong, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then as if he didn't see him, he shouted at the house: "Big boss, Mingfu asks to see!"
Sure enough, as Li Qiucian said, everyone who comes here must tell them in advance.
"It's not very convenient now, if there is anything, just say it. β
Li Qiuciao's voice came from inside the room, without a trace of waves.
The man named Ming Fu didn't care, and even said in a loud voice: "I heard that the big boss brought us a young elixir master and asked him to be our second master?"
Ye Chong, who was sitting at the door, raised his eyebrows, daring to love this guy named Mingfu who came for himself?
Immediately afterwards, I heard Li Qiucian's voice, "Is there anything wrong?"
Ming Fu subconsciously glanced at Ye Chong, and then said, "I want to know, what is the relationship between that young elixir master and you, the big master." β
Ye Chong's head also raised, and he looked at Ming Fu lazily, he knew that the other party must know that he was the young elixir master in his mouth. However, he didn't directly question his position as the second leader, but the relationship with Li Qiuchan?
Looking at the extraordinary bearing that Ming Fu was different from most people in the cottage, and his good aura, Ye Chong was a little funny in his heart, could it be that this guy was jealous?
For some reason, he suddenly looked forward to Li Qiuchan's reply.
Li Qiucian did not hesitate, not even the slightest pause, still in a non-salty tone, and said coldly: "What is the relationship between him and me, you don't need to know, and there is no need to know." β
So the momentum on Mingfu's body is stagnant.
Ye Chong was even more sure that this guy was really jealous. Because of Li Qiuchan's answer, no matter how it sounds, it seems that she and Ye Chong really have some ulterior relationship, but Ye Chong, as the person concerned, knows very well that they do not have the kind of relationship that they think. It's just that they met in the sword mound, and they have had such and such an agreement with each other, in the final analysis, they just have a cooperative relationship.
Li Qiucian naturally didn't need to tell these sΓΉ that Ming Fu, not to mention that she was already a cold character.
But Mingfu obviously understood that he was somewhere else, a handsome face, and a little gloomy at the moment.
"In this case, the subordinates have something to say. Ming Fu's hands clenched slightly, and his cold eyes swept towards Ye Chong, but his words were said to Li Qiucian in the room, "The reason why you became the leader of Heifeng Mountain back then was because of the recognition of the big and small leaders in the cottage at that time, including the vast majority of the villagers, and it was everyone who supported you from the bottom of their hearts, and Heifeng Mountain had a real boss for the first time." Now, a stranger suddenly came, in the name of the elixir, and directly became the second master in the cottage, at this moment, presumably many villagers have not seen him, isn't it too child's play to do this?"
"We all know that the elixir master can have a high status and a lot of wealth anywhere, this young man you brought, can he accompany us through weal and woe? What's more, I don't believe that such a young guy will have a high achievement in alchemy, let alone believe that his storage zΓ i can bring anything to the current Black Wind Mountain. On our mountain, we can't afford to support a real elixir. These, not only do I think so, but most people in the cottage think so. β
"Also, the big boss, you often go out and go, this is for the livelihood of the big guys, we can all understand it. Therefore, if we need a second-in-command in Blackwind Mountain, we must be able to convince the public, have enough strength to protect everyone, and have enough wisdom to deal with things in the cottage when you are away. If he is just a nominal elixir master who is the second master, and he rides on the head of the big guy every day in the future, and behaves mischiefly, no one is qualified to restrain him. If it goes on like this, it will only harm Black Wind Mountain. β
Ming Fu's words seemed to have been prepared a long time ago, and at this time, there was no word, all aimed at Ye Chong, questioning Ye Chong.
The gaze that fell on Ye Chong intentionally or unintentionally was also full of hostility.
This is a proud man.
Ye Chong could clearly see this from the Ming Fu.
This is also a very narrow-minded person.
There was no concealment in his tone, which revealed his jealousy for Ye Chong.
Does he want to be the second in charge, or does he want to get Li Qiuchan, or both?
Ye Chong thought about it for a while, and finally shook his head and smiled, what do you care about him so much, anyway, this guy doesn't like him!
At this time, Li Qiuchan's voice in the room also came out slowly, and the words were obviously said to Ye Chong.
"Since someone doubts you, then you have to prove to him that you have the qualifications to be the second master. If you can't prove it, then I can't keep you, after all, this is not my cottage, it's everyone's cottage. β
She naturally knew that Ye Chong had been listening and watching at the door.
So Ye Chong stood up in response, and said with a smile: "This big brother Mingfu, I'll call you big brother first, I want to ask, how is it good for everyone to be this second master, and how will it hurt everyone?"
Na Mingfu's head raised slightly, "What is good for everyone is to change the situation of the villagers, bring hope to everyone, and harm everyone, naturally it is to eat idle food, enjoy leisure happiness, and use power to do wrong." β
"Oh?" Ye Chong took a few steps forward and said, "Then I am now eating idle meals and enjoying leisure and happiness, and doing nonsense?"
"Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. β
A wax-faced man who followed behind Ming Fu said.
"That is, just like you, what hope can you expect to bring to everyone?"
The other big man also snorted.
"Then dare to ask, how can it be considered hopeful?" Ye Chong took two more steps forward.
"Eat well, dress warmly, have wine and meat, live a worry-free life, no longer be poor, no longer be disgraced, get rid of the identity of a homeless grass coward, and have a bright future to pursue. Ming Fu said proudly.
Ye Chong had already come to the seven feet in front of him at this time, stared at him, and said, "Then can you do it? Can you bring these to the villagers?"
The muscles on Ming Fu's face trembled, and he said coldly: "I've been doing it." β
Ye Chong sneered and said: "Even if all these villagers go to serve as soldiers, I'm afraid the treatment will be much better, right?
Mingfu's face turned blue, "You look down on us?"
"I don't look down on it, I just want to know how much you are willing to pay for the future. Ye Chong deliberately chuckled.
"Hmph! It's easy to say, most of our cottages are burdened with unspeakable secrets, or they came here with their ancestors, and they don't even have a proper identity, so how can they talk about making contributions?"
"That's it, still a soldier, little rabbit cub, you won't know that the army recruits soldiers, and you also need to verify your identity, you might as well sue you, most of our cottages have cases on their backs, and there are those who offend the big and small, even if you don't, your ancestors must have committed something, you might as well just let us go to prison and turn ourselves in!"
The two sallow men said angrily.
Ye Chong felt more confident in his heart, "That's because you are incompetent and can't change the status quo, but I can do it." I can give you the identity of a normal person, and I can take you to leave this Black Wind Mountain and leave the Qi country safe and sound. It is also possible to ...... Give you the opportunity to make a difference. β
"Why should we believe you? Besides, we believe that the big boss will take us away, and we don't need you to intervene in it. Ming Fu said unceremoniously: "You are just an outsider. β
Bringing such a large number of people to leave at the same time, not to mention their identities, just to clear the customs documents, Ye Chong believes that Li Qiucian will not be able to do it at this time, otherwise she will not let these people stay in Qi Country all the time, and she herself will have to shuttle back and forth between Qi and Chu.
Ye Cheng suddenly thought, did Li Qiucian also want to use his relationship to take this group of people away from Qi State?
But in front of him, none of this mattered, he stared at Ming Fu, slightly curled the corners of his mouth and said, "If I am your second master, then I will definitely not be an outsider." You might as well draw a line to see if I am qualified to be the second master!"
