After obtaining the qualifications, the two people from Bifeng Mansion left.

At the same time, there was also a person who was also from Bifeng Mansion, but did not reveal his identity.

This man had already changed into another set of clothes at this time, followed by several burly men, and blended in with the crowd.

Looking at Feng Ziling in the distance, he said faintly: "Check that guy." ”

"Yes!"

The lion dance competition in Guangzhou City has come to an end, and the final of the Nanhai Lion Dance Competition will be held in Zhaoqing, next door to Guangzhou City, in five days.

This year's lion dancing competition is amazing, in addition to the rewards announced before, there are also a batch of emperor-level weapons and equipment, swords, guns, swords, halberds, and even a set of emperor-level inner armor.

In this world, there is no exquisite inner armor, and this emperor-level inner armor can already be said to be the best in the inner armor.

Worth 10,000 gold!

There is still a market priceless.

This ignited everyone's enthusiasm, and the news spread throughout the South China Sea cities almost in half a day.

At this moment, in the entire South China Sea Four Governors, the people are almost discussing this matter.

Similarly, among military households, this matter is also a hot topic.

Feng Ziling, who participated in the lion dance competition in Guangzhou City and qualified for the finals, was personally received by the commander.

Because Guangzhou City is only half a day's journey from Zhaoqing, Feng Ziling is not in a hurry at all, and he can arrive one day in advance.

Until then, he and his companions were still training at sunrise and resting at sunset.

At this time, it was winter, and there was not much farm work, so when Feng Ziling and his companions trained, many military households came to cheer and cheer, and by the way, they saw the demeanor of the lion dance.

After nightfall, the soldiers departed, of course, they did not eat dinner, and the lunch meal could be held until the next morning.

Eat well in the morning and work well, eat enough at noon, continue in the afternoon, and as for dinner, you have to sleep and rest in the evening, and what else to eat.

The life of a military household is so bitter.

And the commander because Feng Ziling earned face for his guards, so he specially gave him a favor and rewarded some food, and in the past two days, Feng Ziling's soldiers have eaten enough.

And Feng Ziling hopes that he can achieve a good ranking in the final lion dance competition, so that the good life of the brothers may last for a while longer.

That night, Feng Ziling was called by the commander to transport a batch of military rations.

The commander patted Feng Ziling on the shoulder, and after a burst of praise, Feng Ziling was confused, and finally knew from the mouth of the commander that today's task was sent from above.

And the task is also very simple, Feng Ziling only needs to follow and guard a batch of grain transported from the dock to the gate of Xicheng and deliver it to the warehouse there.

However, Feng Ziling still had doubts in his heart, why would he let him go for such a simple task.

The commander whispered to him: "Obviously, you have received the attention of the people above, don't look at the small task this time, but there is a lot of oil and water in it." This batch of grain is not official food..."

Speaking of which, Feng Ziling has completely understood.

The commander looked at Feng Ziling's expression and knew that the latter had understood, so he nodded with a smile: "I know that you kid is smart." This kind of fat difference was not our turn before. Remember, don't be too greedy the first time, just do some good for your brothers, as long as you do another good job in the lion dance competition in the future, maybe the whole guard will improve because of you! ”

Feng Ziling was originally a little resistant in his heart, because this was not official food, but... Smuggle.

The land of the South China Sea is obviously the land of fish and rice, why do most of the people not have enough to eat?

There is only one answer: land annexation!

When the weather is good, the people can be self-sufficient.

But every time there is a disaster year, the people can't live without food, and those landlords and gentry will exchange low prices or grain for the land deeds in the hands of the people.

At that time, the people couldn't survive, so they were naturally willing to hand over the title deed.

But after the year of calamity, when the year of abundance came, it was impossible for the people to redeem the land.

The people had no land, so they could only farm the land for the landlords in exchange for that pitiful grain as a reward.

In the long run, over the past hundred years, more than ninety percent of the land in the entire South China Sea has fallen into the hands of the landlords and gentry, and the remaining land belonging to the common people is also barren, and the landlords and gentry look down on those who are not eye-catching.

After Emperor Xuyang ascended the throne, he also discovered these problems in the South China Sea, but several batches of officials were sent down in succession, all of whom were corrupted by these landlords and gentry in the South China Sea with wealth and fame.

Although Emperor Xuyang explicitly ordered that the grain of these landlords and gentry could not be bought and sold privately, if they wanted to buy and sell, they could only go through the government.

This can be regarded as putting a shackle around the necks of the landlords and gentry in the South China Sea.

But the road is one foot high, and these landlords and gentry in the South China Sea still have a way.

This is now smuggling.

So-called warehouses were set up on islands in coastal areas, and then grain was carried out to sea, saying that it was transported north to Tianjin, Shandong and other places.

The sea was turbulent and the waves were high, and many grain ships were wrecked, so the grain was naturally thrown into the sea.

And there are no spies from Dongchang and Jinyiwei on the sea, so there is no way to explore.

Finally, as today, it was transported back at night, and then escorted by trusted people by the government, and the ship went out to sea and came back, so that it could be sold in the local market in the South China Sea.

First, the cost of shipping is saved, and second, the price of rice in the South China Sea is much higher than that in the north.

The northern land was tightly controlled by the imperial court, and the price was set according to the price of the imperial court, and the landlords and gentry of the South China Sea barely earned much silver after removing the freight.

In addition, the population of the north is not large, and it is impossible to eat as much grain as in the South China Sea.

Of course, this whole set of processes is only one of the ways for the Nanhai scholars to make money, and there are many other ways to make money, so they will come one by one.

Feng Ziling has always hated this group of landlords and gentry, and his heart is like a mirror, and the current predicament in the South China Sea is caused by this group of landlords and gentry.

They smuggle grain, and it is the people who suffer.

The land you plant, the grain you harvest, you have to buy it at a high price.

What a reason!

But the commander's words poked at Feng Ziling's weakness.

The benefits of smuggling would allow his brothers to live a good life for a long time.

That's a real benefit.

He Feng Ziling doesn't have the ability to change the entire South China Sea, but he can still change the brothers around him.

Although unwilling, in the face of reality, Feng Ziling still chose to compromise.

On this night, Feng Ziling put on his horse and left the barracks.

In fact, it is not a military camp, and the appearance here is no different from that of ordinary rural areas.

About half an hour after Feng Ziling left, a group of warriors dressed in black and holding weapons came to the outside of the barracks, and the momentum they exuded was very terrifying, all of them were high-level martial artists with advanced cultivation.

And behind this group of men in black, the commander stood with a young man.

The smile on the commander's face stiffened a little, and when he looked at the young man, he still showed his smile helplessly.

"Chen Gongzi, why do you have to go to such a great deal of trouble today. If something happens to me here, it's hard to explain it to the commander. Otherwise, just give that seal a small punishment! ”

Chen Jingxiao, a disciple of the inner door of Bifeng Mansion, and the grandson of the East Pavilion Lord.

Chen Jingxiao is long and long, but he is extremely burly, so he is a head taller than the conductor next to him, but he seems to have very coordinated body proportions, but it seems that the conductor next to him is a little short.

The cultivation of commanding the Zhongpin Dacheng Realm did not occupy any momentum advantage in front of Chen Jingxiao.

The reason for this is because among the seven great schools of Bifeng Mansion, there are two top exercises among the horizontal exercises.

And Chen Jingxiao has naturally cultivated to the fullest, so although his cultivation is a little lower than that of the commander, it is difficult to say which is stronger or weaker in terms of real combat power.

"Does Commander Niu want to teach me to do things, or do you want to teach me to do things in Bifeng Mansion?"

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Commander Niu waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "After all, I also have more than 30 lives here!" ”

Chen Jingxiao looked at the old fox in front of him, sneered in his heart, and said, "Although Bifeng Mansion is one of the Eight Auxiliary Sects of Emperor Wu City, it has always been detached. The relationship between us and Emperor Wu City is just a partnership.

Don't think that Emperor Wu City will return to the imperial court, and your status will rise with the tide.

In the land of the South China Sea, the status of my Bifeng Mansion has never fallen compared to before! ”

"Yes, yes, yes, Niu someone understands, but they all command the envoys there..."

Chen Jingxiao couldn't help but feel a little irritated when he heard Commander Niu keep mentioning Commander Du, so he waved his hand and said, "I will let people know Lord Chi about this matter, so it is feasible!" ”

"Okay, okay! Naturally, you can, no problem! Commander Niu made the stone fall in his heart.

Then I saw Chen Jingxiao wave his hand, and the black-clothed people in front of him seemed to have eyes on the back of their heads, and they took out their weapons and rushed forward, and soon disappeared into the darkness.

Soon, screams were heard from the village-like barracks ahead.

Commander Niu listened to the voice in his ears, and couldn't help sighing, he glanced at Chen Jingxiao, his voice unconsciously became a little heavier, and asked:

"Gongzi Chen, let me ask more, what are you doing this for?

I've heard about the lion dance competition, but not so much. ”

"As for? Hehehe! ”

Chen Jingxiao suddenly began to laugh out loud, and the laughter was extremely permeable in the night.

"Commander Niu, do you think it's not enough?"

Commander Niu was silent, and Chen Jingxiao's sickly strange laughter, as well as the obvious meaning of his words, made him already know the answer in his heart.

He just felt a little sorry that Feng Ziling was his good helper, and maybe Feng Ziling would be able to leave the military household in the future.

Feng Ziling's ability is sufficient, and the potential is also good. In addition, his adoptive father had a good relationship with him, and his adoptive father once stabbed him on the battlefield, and the two were called brothers after that.

Now you can only blame Feng Ziling himself.

A behemoth like Bifeng Mansion, why don't you know how to avoid it?

Now just messing with a small inner disciple has made the whole thing uncontrollable and irreparable.

"Commander Niu, I know what you're thinking.

Although Ah Si is only an inner disciple, his background is definitely beyond your expectations.

Otherwise, with his ability, how could he become an inner disciple?

My Bifeng Mansion has always only looked at talent and not identity.

Commander Niu, do you understand? ”

Commander Niu was suddenly stunned.

He was not born and raised as a boy, but when he joined the army and participated in the war, he followed Shangguan as the current governor of Guangdong.

After coming down from the battlefield, he followed this Shangguan all the way to the land of the South China Sea.

For Bifeng Mansion, he didn't know much about Bifeng Mansion, but before that, the well water of the two sides did not interfere with the river water, and the Niu Commander was not afraid of Bifeng Mansion.

But now after Chen Jingxiao said this, he suddenly remembered some of the things his Shangguan had said to him.

Bifeng Mansion is definitely not a simple, simple force in the rivers and lakes.

Bifeng Mansion has been inherited to this day, but it is not at all the decades he seems.

His historical heritage can even be compared to the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism.

And these words were only told to him after his superiors were drunk.

Later, when he asked the Shangguan again, he was very taboo, and at the same time, he also asked the Niu Commander to rot the matter in his stomach.

Now that I think about it, Bifeng Mansion's status in the heart of Commander Niu has suddenly risen.

And Chen Jingxiao glanced at Commander Niu, he knew that the news channels of these high-level generals were not shallow, plus the identity of Commander Niu.

The expression on Commander Niu's face was quickly seen by Chen Jingxiao, and he interpreted the true thoughts in Commander Niu's heart.

"It seems that Commander Niu also knows about our Bifeng Mansion, so that's enough!

I will be responsible for explaining this matter to Master Chi, you just need to appease that Feng Ziling. ”

"Then why don't you give Feng Ziling to ...... together"

A hint of murderous intent appeared in Commander Niu's eyes.

He now knew in his heart how much trouble Feng Ziling had caused him?

"No hurry, no hurry." An intriguing and weird smile appeared at the corner of Chen Jingxiao's mouth.

The day was about to break, Feng Ziling completed the task, and brought back three truckloads full of food at the same time.

The groom who was carrying the grain cart came a mile outside the barracks, then got out of the wagon and left straight away.

Feng Ziling thought that the three of them were trying to avoid suspicion, so he didn't care much, rode on a white horse, and quickly ran towards the barracks.

He wanted his brothers to come out and transport these three grain wagons into the barracks, and these three grain wagons also had at least a thousand catties of grain on them.

Enough for the brothers to eat for months.

Just after Feng Ziling entered the barracks, half of the tired and half joyful colors on his face suddenly dissipated.

For no other reason, even the white horse he sat on began to twitch its nose and make a sizzling sound.

Because the smell of blood in this barracks is really ...... It's so rich!

Feng Ziling immediately turned over and dismounted, and in a flash, he crashed directly into a house on one side.

Almost the next moment, he dodged out of the house and took two steps into an adjacent courtyard.

In just a few breaths, Feng Ziling even pulled out the afterimage, shuttling back and forth between several houses, and finally he returned to the middle of the entire military camp in a daze, and his hands were already covered with blood at some point.

All the brothers in the whole barracks...... They're all dead!

And at this moment, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance.

The sound came from far and near, and it approached very quickly.

The ox commander was wearing armor and sitting on a tall horse, and this war horse was also covered with half-body armor at this time, which was an armored war horse that only the commander was qualified to have.

Behind the ox commander was followed by no less than a hundred horsemen.

And at the back were the three grain carts.

Commander Niu looked at Feng Ziling in the middle of the barracks with a complicated expression.

Feng Ziling raised his head silently, the whole person seemed to be a godless puppet, but the moment he saw Commander Niu, he suddenly rushed forward two steps, and the guards around Commander Niu immediately rode out and stopped in the direction of Feng Ziling's advance.

However, Feng Ziling only knelt down abruptly not far in front of Commander Niu.

Kneel and kowtow.

"My lord! The military camp was attacked, and scouts were quickly dispatched to search the neighborhood and find the murderer! ”

Feng Ziling's head slammed heavily on the ground, and his eyes were red.

He couldn't understand why in the hinterland of Guangzhou City, it could still be attacked.

Who is the thief? Could it be a nearby bandit!

Or some other river and ocean thief.

But why choose them here?

What do they want here?

Feng Ziling couldn't figure it out in his heart!

At this moment, the Niu Commander slowly spoke.

There was a hint of unbearability on his face.

Anyway, he has been bringing soldiers for a long time.

It's just that in the face of the general trend, even he, the commander, is powerless to resist at all.

His hand touched the bag on the side of the war horse, which contained the documents of his Shangguan, the governor of Guangdong, who commanded Chi Wenjing.

The paper was delivered with the ink still dry.

It was early in the morning.

Chen Jingxiao actually had the ability to make the commander of the hall get up in the middle of the night to write this document for him.

At that time, Commander Niu's jealousy and fear of Bifeng Mansion reached its peak.

"Feng Ziling, you smuggled military rations, and now that the incident happened, you killed your siblings, are you guilty?"

Feng Ziling's hands slammed into the mud and sand on the ground, and he couldn't believe what he had heard.

He raised his head suddenly, but the two guards of the Niu Command had already come to his side, each holding a round shield and a long knife in their hands, looking at Feng Ziling vigilantly.

These two people are also cultivators of the low-grade Dacheng realm, and they should be able to suppress Feng Ziling in the case of two to one.

Commander Niu's face did not change, and he continued: "This commander has already found out this matter and reported the matter to Lord Chi, the commander of the capital.

Now come to arrest Feng Ziling.

Feng Ziling, do you plead guilty? ”

Feng Ziling glanced at the two guards of the Niu Commander, who were eyeing him and might make a move at any time, and then at the Niu Commander, and his mouth sounded, but for some reason he became extremely hoarse.

"Your Excellency...... Why is that...... Why! ”

Commander Niu just shook his head and said nothing.

He didn't know if there were any spies from Bifeng Mansion among the guards around him, he couldn't speak, and more... Don't dare to speak!
