Chapter 334: The Sword of All Beings
Jiang Yu said goodbye to Deacon Ma, took Hongrou back to his mansion, and then sent someone to call Deacon Ma. It didn't take long for Deacon Ma to rush over, and when he saw Deacon Ma, Jiang Yu smiled dumbly. It turned out that the deacon Ma was wearing two different shoes, one was a woman's shoe, and the shoes were too small for him to wear, so he could only drag them.
It turned out that Jiang Yu was a new official, and no one dared to make a bird, when he went to call Deacon Ma, Deacon Ma was still sleeping back in the cage, and when he heard Jiang Yu call him, as if he had been struck by lightning, he came in a hurry, and hurriedly put on the woman's shoes. And it wasn't until he saw Jiang Yuxiao that he knew that he was wearing the wrong one, and he was embarrassed.
"Bring a pair of shoes to Deacon Ma. Jiang Yu gave an order, and immediately sent a pair of shoes by the maid and put them in front of Deacon Ma, Deacon Ma smiled awkwardly, changed his shoes, and then packed up his clothes and sat on the guest seat, although he was sitting, his heart was uneasy, he didn't know why Jiang Yu suddenly called him.
"What has Deacon Ma been busy with lately?" Jiang Yu asked while sitting on the main seat, drinking tea. In fact, Jiang Yu doesn't like this kind of display very much, but what kind of means must be used to deal with anyone.
"Doing what you can is just serving the sect. Deacon Ma smiled flatteringly, revealing an expression of "you should understand".
"Oh?" Jiang Yu glanced at him sideways and said, "But I've heard that Deacon Ma has been very busy lately and has done some things out of the ordinary. When Jiang Yu spoke, he was very calm, as if he had obtained some evidence.
Hearing Jiang Yu say this, Deacon Ma sighed in his heart, and the sip of tea he just drank was like poison, and he couldn't swallow or spit it out. He said in his heart that it was as I expected, and it was indeed the three fires of the new official, and the first fire burned on my head. Deacon Ma's head spun rapidly, thinking about countermeasures, but he didn't think that Jiang Yu was completely tricking him.
Seeing Deacon Ma slowly stand up, but he bowed to the ground very quickly, seeing him like this, Jiang Yu was also slightly surprised, but he didn't say anything, waiting for Deacon Ma to see what he could say.
Deacon Ma said prostrately: "It's the subordinates who deserve to die, when the subordinates are working for the sect, some key places, it is necessary to use some means, take some things that should not be taken, and use some things that should not be used." But the subordinates are loyal to the Shenwu Sect, and they do everything seriously, and they don't dare to be negligent at all, and the annual tribute will not be less at all. "It's not that Deacon Ma is cowardly, but that Jiang Yu, as the city lord, has the right to kill him, so he can't be afraid.
Hearing this, Jiang Yu didn't care about the others, but the word Nian Gong that Deacon Ma said, Jiang Yuxin said what Nian Gong was, and he didn't know yet. He simply waved his hand and said coldly: "It's good if you don't do it again, and I don't want to embarrass you, after all, everyone is in the same boat." ”
Deacon Ma nodded busily while listening to Jiang Yu's words. After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he suddenly changed his words and said, "Did you bring the account book for the New Year's tribute you said?"
"Yes, yes!" After Deacon Ma finished speaking, he took out a book of accounts from his sleeve and handed it to Hongrou, who then handed it to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu opened the account book, just casually read a few pages, and a wave of anger rose to his brain. For no other reason, this account is full of all kinds of businesses, and the most important of them is the business of buying and selling women. And the seller is either a person from the Three Kings Courtyard or a person from the Five Aggregate Path. Jiang Yu didn't need to ask, he could almost guess what the reason was. Between the Three Kings Courtyard and the Five Aggregate Dao, they attacked day and night, and most of the captives they captured, the strong men were sent back to work as coolies, and the young women were almost all sold to the Shenwu Sect. The snipe and the clam competed for the fisherman's profit, Jiang Yu roughly estimated that there were hundreds of transactions recorded in this account book, and the number of people involved in the sale was definitely more than twenty or thirty thousand people. And the so-called annual tribute is estimated to be to sacrifice these women to the Shenwu Sect.
"Damn!" Jiang Yu scolded in his heart, saying that this Shenwu Sect is really bad enough. He endured it without losing his temper, put the account book aside, and asked with a calm face, "Is there only so much for Nian Gong?"
When Deacon Ma heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "Of course it's more than that, Muyun City is a big city, and the contribution is naturally more, in previous years, a city should be offered 50,000 heads, and recently there is a large gap in the sect, and the instructions given are 80,000 heads, and there are still six months before the payment period, and the remaining part, the subordinates must desperately overachieve, and never let the city lord embarrass you." ”
"Hmm......" Jiang Yu nodded slightly. But suddenly, he felt that something was wrong. He said in his heart that if it is a simple business relationship, if you use people, you will also escort, take care of something, and how many people can be used. Listening to Deacon Zuo's words, almost all the manpower is in the hands of Deacon Ma. What did he want so many people to do, Jiang Yu immediately figured out something. Then he deceited: "I heard that you let your subordinates privately arrest a woman from a good family, but is there such a thing?"
Hearing this, Deacon Ma immediately knelt on the ground and said, "The city lord atons for his sins, this matter ......."
"Yes or no?" Jiang Yu asked, in fact, Jiang Yu had already determined in his heart that there must be such a thing.
Deacon Ma thought for a long time, and after the wording was ready, he said, "Your Excellency, you don't know the inside story, and your subordinates have a hard time. ”
"What's the problem, say!" Jiang Yu said coldly.
Deacon Ma looked at Jiang Yu and said, "Although the sect will transfer funds every year, to be honest, the little money given is really a little less, and when the city lord Gu was there, he also transferred funds in the city for use, but it was always a drop in the bucket. ”
"Oh, why?" Jiang Yu urged.
Deacon Ma said: "Because on this barren state, there is not only one city in my sect, Muyun City, other cities also have the same task, and they will naturally bid for each other. And the barren state has been fighting year after year, and the people are not as good as a year, and the harvest is naturally less, so the price has doubled upward, and I heard that some of the other cities have gone to other states to buy. And we don't have that strength, so we can only use our own manpower...... In fact, this is also a helpless move, and we are not the only ones who do it. The same is true of other cities. ”
Jiang Yu didn't say anything, but scolded in his heart, and said in his heart that he was helpless. But I don't know how many lives will be lost in this helpless move. And listening to Deacon Ma's words, not only Muyun City is doing this, this Shenwu Sect's virtue is lacking.
Jiang Yu suppressed the anger in his heart, patiently listened to Deacon Ma ask all the details of Nian Gong clearly, and finally flicked his sleeves and let Deacon Ma retreat. After Deacon Ma retreated, the entire main hall was silent. In the main hall, in addition to Jiang Yu, there is only Hongrou left.
Jiang Yu was speechless, silently thinking about countermeasures. And Hongrou was speechless, Deacon Nama explained the matter clearly, and she also understood, as a person who had been persecuted by the Shenwu Sect, she had some empathy, and even felt a little lucky, he was glad that he had met Jiang Yu.
When Jiang Yu was thinking about it, he saw Hongrou tidying up her clothes and kneeling in front of her in a proper manner.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Yu looked at Hongrou and asked.
Hongrou bowed to the ground, and then said solemnly: "I know that the master is a benevolent person, and he is not a person who helps the abuse, and now the master has asked the key to this, and asked the master to lend a hand and save them." ”
Seeing Hongrou like this, Jiang Yu was a little relieved in his heart, and said that Hongrou could do this, which was indeed a bit extraordinary. But he didn't know if it was okay, so he brushed his sleeves and said, "You can go down too, I know this matter in my heart." ”
"Yes!" Hongrou knew Jiang Yu's temperament, and knew that she was not good at resisting again, so she got up and went out.
As soon as Hong Rou retreated, she saw a red light flying out from between Jiang Yu's eyebrows, and a red shadow fell to the ground, which was the sword spirit jade.
"Master, don't you care about this?" Jiang Yu saw that Yu'er was very serious today, and the awe-inspiring sword intent between his eyebrows was even stronger.
"Why should I care?" Jiang Yu said with a smile, he was naturally teasing Yuer when he said this. When Yuer heard Jiang Yu's words, she was stunned and almost couldn't believe it. He said angrily: "Jiang Yu, I really misjudged you. If I had known that you were like this, I shouldn't, shouldn't have ......" The more Yuer thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, and seeing that she was serious, Jiang Yu chuckled and patted her on the head. Said: "In vain, you are still one with me, and you don't know my mind." Am I playing when I infiltrate the Divine Martial Sect?"
"Isn't it for the little fox?" said Yuer, sneering.
Jiang Yu laughed when he heard this, then looked out of the door and said, "A person like Deacon Ma, I can't wait to kill him ten thousand times, but killing him now can't solve the matter at all, even if you kill him, there will be the next person to replace him." We have to have a complete solution. ”
Hearing Jiang Yu say this, Yuer's angry face disappeared, and he snorted lightly and said, "Then what can you do now?"
Jiang Yu shook his head and said, "The Shenwu Sect has deep roots, I still can't fully understand it now, how can I eradicate them, all I can do now is to find a way to save the latest batch." He found that in the middle of every month, there would be a ship to send a batch of "annual tribute" to Shenwu Sect, and more than eighty percent of the people in the account books had already been sent to Shenwu Sect. In other words, most of the people in the account books may have been killed, and they are all dead. Thinking of this, Jiang Yu couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, I heard the sword spirit muttering: "The great god of Boling has achieved between heaven and earth with the way of the sword, and those who rely on it are also sentient beings." For the good to eliminate evil, to guard the right and resist the evil, the sword of the bipolar sword heart is waved for all sentient beings. Don't forget that, host. Jiang Yu's joke just now obviously still made Yu Er a little scared, and Yu Er's somewhat overreacted to it, which also made Jiang Yu feel a little shocked in his heart, and gradually became a little interested in Boling in his heart.
After listening to Yu'er's words, Jiang Yu smiled and said, "I don't know these big truths, I only know that the good days of this group of deflated people in the Shenwu Sect are coming to an end." ”
