Chapter 34: You Sent It Yourself
The golden crow is flourishing in the east, and the jade rabbit is sinking in the west.
In the early morning, Heyang County should be quiet and peaceful, with elderly people walking on the street and children playing on the street.
But now there was only a group of strangely dressed people with swords in hand.
No one dares to go out easily.
The many martial arts people who have poured in these days have made this small border city that has just settled down a little depressed.
Although there are no martial arts people who have done anything too bad for the time being, their appearance of carrying swords and swords will make ordinary people retreat and dare not approach at all.
Whenever you want to go out, you will basically go together, so as not to provoke these terrible martial arts people.
Of course, there are also more miserable ones, no one has to travel together, so you can only take the road with a little more people in fear.
No one dares to walk in the small alleys, and it is even more dangerous to be secluded and uninhabited.
Xu Zuo is such a miserable person.
At the age of 16, he had to take care of his bedridden mother and young sister alone.
Now there is no rice at home, so he can only go out and buy it.
Xu Zuo walked out of the house with trepidation and walked cautiously along the street, for fear of encountering those vicious people in the rivers and lakes.
But I didn't take a few steps before I was stopped by someone.
"Ah, chivalry, chivalry, you, what are you going to stop me for?" Xu Zuo asked a little nervously, but seeing that the person in front of him was an old man with a kind face, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Little brother, don't be afraid, the old man just wants to ask you about something." The old man smiled and asked, "After coming here, the old man often heard people talk about a Lu Daxia, do you know what the origin of this Lu Daxia is, and where is it now?" β
"Do you also admire Lu Daxia?" As soon as Xu Zuo heard the old man's question, he immediately came to his senses and said happily, "This Lu Daxia is a good person, and his righteousness is thin and cloudy."
"A few days ago, the government ran out of food, and the local clans and profiteers maliciously raised the price, and Lu Daxia directly took the current county lord to kill him, forcing them to reduce the price of grain to 300 Wen."
"With such a low price of food, I'm afraid it won't last many days." The old man frowned when he heard this, "If there is a great drought today, and there is a famine everywhere, where will there be such cheap food." β
"I heard that Lu Daxia bought grain at a high price through his own way, and then sold it to us ordinary people at a low price." Xu Zuo still had a smile on his face, "The people of the entire Heyang County are grateful to Lu Daxia. β
"If he does this, he will attract a lot of displaced people." The old man said.
"It seems so." Xu Zuo nodded, "Recently, a lot of people who are fleeing from the famine outside have come to our side, and Lu Daxia is benevolent and righteous, and they have arranged accommodation and food for them. β
"Hey, good means." When the old man heard this, he laughed and said, "This is indeed a way to increase the population of the city, and it is also convenient to meet the conditions for opening the treasure. β
"What are the conditions for opening the treasure?" Xu Zuo didn't know why, but he quickly reacted, and suddenly said angrily, "You old man, are you saying that Lu Daxia sucks low-cost food to attract homeless people and increase the population in the city, so that it will be easier to 'blood in rivers and corpses over 10,000'?!" β
"Isn't it?" The old man said with a smile, "Nowadays, food is expensive, and he supplies food like this, and he has to lose thousands of yuan every day, for what, just to win a chivalrous name?" The little brother is too naΓ―ve. β
"You old thing, gibberish!" Xu Zuo was furious, and walked forward directly around the old man, not wanting to deal with it anymore, Lu Daxia was the person he respected the most, and he couldn't listen to any slanderous words against Lu Daxia.
"Huh." The old man smiled when he saw this, and he didn't seem to be angry, but he looked at the back of Xu Zuo leaving, and flicked his fingers lightly, and suddenly a true qi silently submerged into his body.
"Let's see how much ability your so-called Lu Daxia has, the old man's ghostly true anger is not so easy to solve!"
The Netherworld True Qi is the unique mastery of the Netherworld God Sect in the Twelve Realms of Demons.
If there is someone with rich experience in the rivers and lakes here, he can recognize this old man at a glance as the Netherworld Righteous Envoy among the twelve divine envoys of the Netherworld God Sect.
Liu Xiao.
The master of the eighth level of ascending to the sky!
β¦β¦
Nowadays, most of the people in the rivers and lakes have come to Heyang County for a few days and have a basic understanding of the general situation here.
A rather mysterious Lu Daxia became the focus of their attention.
This person appeared too suddenly, and the strength he showed was not too strong for them.
It's a great place to be tempted.
After all, the method of opening the treasure of the witchcraft spread too quickly, and many people wondered if it was some kind of conspiracy.
Therefore, like this old man, there are not a few people who randomly choose people on the road for arrangement.
So, early this morning alone, many people fainted and fell into a coma in the grain store, and they couldn't wake up no matter how much they were treated, and the matter quickly spread to Lu Heng.
"Almost every commissary has someone in an inexplicable coma?" Lu Heng frowned when he heard Han Tong's report, and then sneered, "I haven't even done it yet, but they have tried it, this is exactly what I want, take me to these grain shops." β
"Yes!" Han Tong nodded hurriedly, these people who had recently entered the city had made him very angry.
Originally, Heyang County had been able to settle down, but as soon as this group of people came, all kinds of things happened, such as not paying for food and lodging, beating people on the street, and molesting women from good families.
Although these are all martial arts people with a low realm, those famous people in the sixth, seventh, and even eighth levels are still relatively restrained, but without the support of these celebrities, those martial arts people may not dare to be so casual.
From Han Tong's point of view, it is best to drive these ordinary martial arts people and the so-called famous people out of Heyang County.
β¦β¦
The first grain shop that Lu Heng came to was the place where Xu Zuo went to buy grain.
At this time, this young man who looked rather thin was lying on a bamboo bed, his face was pale and unconscious, and there was a little girl who looked to be only seven or eight years old beside him, with tears all over her face.
"Lu Daxia is here!"
"Lu Daxia is here, Xiao Zuo's child has been saved!!"
Someone recognized Lu Heng and immediately shouted with great joy.
The little girl knelt on the ground with a puff when she heard this, kowtowed and shouted, "Lu Daxia, please save my brother, please!" β
"Well, get up, it'll be fine." Lu Heng nodded, helped the little girl up, looked at Xu Zuo, suddenly narrowed his eyes, and snorted coldly, "What a ruthless method, you actually did this poisonous attack!" β
With his current realm strength, he could see at a glance that the reason for Xu Zuo's coma was due to a true qi entrenched in his heart vein, blocking the flow of vitality throughout his body.
If he can't be saved in an hour, the boy will really die.
And this is to test oneself, or to bring oneself out.
Lu Heng flicked his fingers, causing a piece of mana to fall into Xu Zuo's body, instantly disintegrating that true qi full of evil charm.
Xu Zuo soon woke up, looked at everyone a little blankly, and finally asked his sister, "What's wrong with me, why are I lying here, there are so many people, Ah Xiang, why are you here too?" β
"Brother!" The little girl named Ah Xiang hugged Xu Zuo at once and sobbed, "You're awake, you're awake, it's great!" You were unconscious just now, but it was Lu Daxia who saved you! β
"Lu Daxia?!" Xu Zuo was immediately extremely excited when he heard this, looked up at Lu Heng, and was about to get out of bed to thank him.
"Not necessarily." Lu Heng waved his hand and said with a smile, "You have a good rest first, I need to take care of one person." β
As soon as he dispelled the evil true qi in Xu Zuo's body, he relied on the aura of that true qi to lock on to an old man in the crowd outside, and sensed that this person's life level was no less than his current self.
The eighth level of ascending to heaven?
Lu Heng's heart was originally just an ordinary level of anger and murderous intent.
Now it's skyrocketing!
You sent it yourself!
