31 Chapter 31

Shuixian County is located in the northwest of Zhou Kingdom, the water system in the county is very developed, the output of fish and shrimp is extremely high, and the crops are also very good, and it was once nicknamed the hometown of small fish and rice.

Sounds good, in fact, most of the time the water county is really good, but, because the water system is too developed, if there is a year of heavy rain, it will become Zeguo, fortunately, most of the people know water, and they have rich experience, usually as long as it is not the mouth of a big river upstream, the lives of the people can basically be guaranteed.

It's just that homes are destroyed and need to be rebuilt, and of course, the swelling river water will also bring a lot of nutrient-rich silt, and growing crops in such fields will be a bumper harvest, which can be described as a true portrayal of blessing and misfortune.

When Xiao Ling and Luo Chen arrived in Shui County, it was summer here, and the rainy days in the past few days had caused the air to be extremely humid and foggy.

Yu Yan disliked that the humidity outside was too much, and he didn't see the scenery, so he got into the carriage directly, and now the cabin has changed guns, and there is a small house inside, and Yu Yan also has his own small house, and it and Xiao Ling do not disturb each other.

Xiao Ling lifted the curtain of the carriage and frowned slightly, this is the county seat, and many of the people outside are in rags, and some men even take off their shirts and beat them shirtless.

At this moment, several servants dressed in the same clothes appeared, carrying large vats, and from it came bursts of rice incense, which were for porridge, and the ragged people immediately went over in an orderly manner.

It seems that there has been a disaster here, Xiao Ling sighed.

It was getting late, Luo Chen and Xiao Ling were not in a hurry, they just found an inn to rest for the night, and then went to the county order tomorrow.

Probably because of the local disaster, the food in the inn is also very average, not that it is not bad, but the main thing is that the raw materials are very average, obviously, there is a lack of materials here.

Early the next morning, Xiao Ling took Luo Chen straight to the county office. Through getting along these days, Xiao Ling knows very well that Luo Chen doesn't like to deal with people very much, so he naturally comes out.

When the county magistrate heard the news that a cultivator was coming, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly put down the business at hand and took the county servants and others to the door to greet him in person.

The county magistrate is thirty-five or sixteen years old, with three locks of mustache, a thin figure, wearing a cyan robe, looking Sven, and the two big eye bags have destroyed this Sven a little, but thinking of the disaster here, Xiao Ling's first impression of this county order is very good.

"In Xia Mu Yuan, the two immortals please." Mu Yuan bowed and saluted, without any shelves.

In the face of the cultivators, Mu Xian Ling did not dare to slack off in the slightest, not only came to pick it up in person, but also opened the main door wide, took people into the hall, and invited two people to take a seat, and he himself sat down with his hands down.

The well-trained little guy neatly served tea to everyone, Luo Chen immediately took a sip, Xiao Ling glanced at him, and found that people had begun to wander outside the world, very good, this is very Luo Chen.

Xiao Ling looked at the county order: "Mu county order, the two of us came here to hire some people. ”

Mu Yuan was not surprised, most of the monks came to the mortal world, and most of them came to hire mortals: "I don't know what the two immortal elders are going to do with the two immortal masters hiring mortals?" ”

"The simplest, we have a field and ask someone to farm it."

"Farming?" Mu Yuan was dumbfounded, the first time he heard that a monk hired mortals to farm the land, was this really reliable?

Xiao Ling nodded: "It's farming, we have more fields, so we need to hire someone to help us plant." ”

Mu Yuan frowned slightly: "The two immortal elders, I heard that the plants in the cultivation realm are extraordinary, this, can mortals such as me really be able to plant?" ”

"Don't worry, we know this." Xiao Ling knew that the county order doubted him, and immediately said: "Mu county order, you can rest assured about the safety of the people, since we have come to the county government and come to you, it means that we are willing to sign a contract with you, with the contract in hand, what do you have to worry about?" ”

was poked in his heart, Mu Yuan still looked as usual: "What the two immortals said is that they are thinking too much." I wonder how many people the two Immortal Elders want to recruit? ”

Xiao Ling smiled: "Not much, five hundred people are enough." ”

Mu Yuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, five hundred people, it is indeed not much, he heard that those evil cultivators, once they hold any human sacrifices, they are tens of thousands, and five hundred people are a fraction.

"When we came, we really saw that your county was suffering from the disaster, and we also knew what was going on." Xiao Ling didn't want to force people: "The Mu County Order can discuss with the people and give us an answer early tomorrow morning." ”

Muxian Ling nodded again and again: "Thank you for the size of the two immortal elders, I don't know where the two immortal elders live?" ”

"At the Lianyuan Inn." Saying that, Xiao Ling stood up and dragged Luo Chen: "Okay, presumably Mu County is busy with official business, so the two of us won't bother." ”

Seeing Xiao Ling and Luo Chen away, the Mu County Commander let out a sigh, turned back to the county office, and immediately asked the county officials beside him: "How is it?" Is there any news from the county? ”

The county man had a bitter face: "No, I heard that our official document to report the disaster was suppressed by the government." ”

Mu Yuan closed his eyes and his body shook.

"Your Excellency!"

Mu Yuan shook his head: "I'm fine." ”

The county and the master looked at each other.

Mu Yuan reopened his eyes: "You go and ask if there are any rich families in the city who are willing to give food for disaster relief." ”

"Yes."

Ordering his subordinates to do things, Mu Yuan returned to the back house with a deep face.

"Xianggong, the county was affected by the disaster, why did you come back at this hour, something happened?" Yun Wan's face was full of doubts, her father-in-law was already too busy to eat, and she stayed up for two nights in a row.

Mu Yuan was silent.

Yun Wan became more and more puzzled: "Xianggong? ”

Mu Yuan closed his eyes, sighed, opened his eyes, and finally said in a deep voice: "You, you clean up for Da Lang, I'll let him go out of the house." ”

"But go to the county town for help?" Yun Wan waved her hand at a maid beside her as she spoke, and poured another cup of tea for Mu Yuan.

The maid blessed herself and turned to go out.

Mu Yuan refused the teacup that Yun Wan sent to him: "Two immortals are here today." ”

Yun Wan's body shook, and the water in the teacup overflowed: "Xianggong ......"

"They said they were here to hire people to farm the land, and I, I wanted Da Lang to go with me."

The brain buzzed instantly, and Yun Wan's eyes were dark.

With a click, the teacup was thrown to the ground by Yun Wan's trembling hand and shattered into pieces.

Mu Yuan lowered his head and covered his reddened eyes.

Yun Wan pinched her palm fiercely, and Huo Ran got up: "I don't agree." The voice was sharper than the two had ever been married.

"Lady ......"

"Xianggong, does the monk know that the monk is the evil Xianggong? Have you forgotten about the evil cultivator's taking the human sacrifice? In case, in case they are evil cultivators, Da Lang, Da Lang ......" Yun Wan said as hot tears fell like beads.

The heat made her tears flow more and more fiercely, and it also burned Mu Yuan's eyes with water stains, but he still persuaded against his will: "They said they were willing to sign a contract." ”

"What can we do if they tear up the contract? This is not an equal contract in the first place. ”

Mu Yuan was silent.
