Chapter 142: Change

Chen Lei looked at the city guards on the city wall below, frowned slightly, and said, "I am Chen Lei, a disciple of the Chen family, why don't you hurry up and get out." ”

"What about the Chen family, can you not follow the rules, tell you, don't say that you are a disciple of the Chen family, even if the head of the Chen family is here, you must also abide by our rules, if you want to enter the city, then come in through the city gate." ”

A leader-level city guard on the city wall did not take Chen Lei in his eyes at all, let alone be bluffed by the Chen family's name, and said with a sneer.

Chen Lei didn't know what was going on in Qingyang Town now, so he didn't plan to make trouble, and landed the Qingglaze Flying Cloud Boat in an open space outside the city gate, so that everyone got off the Flying Cloud Boat and prepared to walk into Qingyang Town.

"Stop, if you want to enter the city, you must pay a tax, ten taels of silver per person!"

Chen Lei and the others were just about to enter the city when they were stopped by two soldiers guarding the city.

Chen Lei's brows furrowed again, and he said, "Pay taxes, when did Qingyang Town have this rule, why haven't I heard of it." ”

Seeing this, a soldier suddenly looked fierce and vicious, and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, this is the new rule set by our town guards, no one can violate it, if you want to enter the city, then pay taxes honestly, otherwise, where will you get out of here." ”

Chen Lei's eyes widened, and the murderous aura that had not yet dissipated after killing a thousand blood wolf bandits just now rolled out, instantly enveloping this soldier.

"Ahh

Attacked by Chen Lei's rich murderous aura, the soldier was suddenly frightened and sat on the ground, incontinent and incontinent, his eyes were scattered, and he was almost frightened into a madman.

"I have to pay taxes when I go back to my house, and I haven't heard of this bullshit rule. ”

Chen Lei glanced sideways at another gatekeeper, this gatekeeper was so frightened that he didn't dare to look at Chen Lei, let alone collect taxes.

In this way, Chen Lei swaggered into the city with the 1,000 surviving women and children.

"Stop!"

Chen Lei had not gone far with the people, when suddenly the sound of horses' hooves sounded from a distance like a torrential rain.

"Click......"

A team of heavily armed soldiers blocked Chen Lei's way.

"Who are you, so bold, lawless, dare to violate the laws and regulations formulated by the town guard himself, resist taxes and do not pay, attack and kill soldiers, the crime is unforgivable, and if you don't obediently tie your hands and arrest you, go back with me, and wait for the fate. ”

A lieutenant pointed a spear in his hand at Chen Lei's door and shouted angrily.

"Who the hell are you, repeatedly provoke me, and dare to be rude to me, don't blame me for being rude. ”

Chen Lei was already sulking in his heart at this time, and when he went home, he was so troubled one after another, and the anger in his heart was difficult to suppress.

"Dare to threaten the official and look for a fight!"

After hearing Chen Lei's words, the captain sneered, and the spear in his hand slashed down towards Chen Lei's face, and said while splitting: "Little pariahs are so bold and reckless, even if you are killed, you deserve it." ”

Seeing this lieutenant's actions, Chen Lei was completely furious, and with a light wave of his palm, he grabbed the spear in his hand.

"Let go!"

Chen Lei let out a low snort, and with a little force, he directly snatched this spear from the captain's hand.

The lieutenant was stunned for a moment, then became furious, and said: "You actually dare to attack and kill Shangguan, with the intention of rebelling, go up, give me all the same, beat me hard, and I will be responsible for killing ......"

"Woo woo woo ......"

When more than a dozen soldiers heard the order, they immediately drew their spears and slammed them at Chen Lei.

Chen Lei's face turned cold, the spear in his hand turned into a stick, and he turned into a stick shadow, and in the blink of an eye, he pulled off the horse of more than a dozen soldiers who were doing it, and the lieutenant took extra care of it, and the two sticks swept firmly on his face, directly knocking him out.

Then, Chen Lei casually threw down the spear in his hand, took a group of women and children, and Shi Shiran left.

This time, no one dared to stop him on the road, and Chen Lei returned to Chen's mansion safely.

"Chen Lei, why did you come back at this time?"

Chen Tangxuan, the head of the family who got the news, personally came to the gate to greet Chen Lei.

Chen Lei said: "This is a long story, let's talk about it later, the head of the family, you first arrange people to settle these women and children." ”

Chen Tangxuan naturally saw these women and children behind Chen Lei for the first time, as well as some elderly people, he nodded, called a housekeeper, and gave a few instructions.

"Come with me, all of you. ”

The housekeeper led everyone to the backyard, while Chen Tangxuan and Chen Lei also came to the main hall and sat down separately.

"Chen Lei, why did you remember to come back?"

At this time, Chen Tangxuan had the opportunity to ask Chen Lei's intention to come back.

"I don't worry about the family, and there is nothing to do in the Xuantian Sect, come back and take a look, by the way, what is going on in this Qingyang Town, why have I been gone for half a year, the change will be so big, who is this town guard, and he actually has to collect taxes when he goes out of the city and enters the city, what is the situation?"

Chen Lei downplayed his return, and then asked the question in his heart.

"Alas!"

Chen Tangxuan sighed deeply, and then continued: " It's hard to put it into words, aren't we uniting with several other major families to eradicate and annihilate the Wang family in one fell swoop, and this Qingyang Town, the original town guard, is an elder of the Wang family, in that operation, the elder of the Wang family did not escape, and was wiped out by us, so that the position of the Qingyang town guard is vacant, originally we have recommended a new town guard to the county government, who would have thought that the county government did not agree to the candidate we recommended, but sent a new town guard, all of this thing, this town guard made out. ”

"What is the origin of this town guard?" asked Chen Lei.

"This town guard is called Ning Shanya, it is said that a distant disciple of the Ning family in Xihua Province, when he took office, he also brought two thousand elite soldiers, and became the fifth largest force in my Qingyang Town in one fell swoop, and as soon as Ning Shanya took office, he jumped up and down, connected vertically and horizontally, and wanted to control the power of Qingyang Town. The Nie family, our two families have been squeezed and oppressed, and their lives are really strong. ”

Chen Tangxuan can be regarded as having found someone to talk to, and spit out all the bitter water he has been holding back in the past few months towards Chen Lei.

The more he said Zhao Qi, Chen Lei's face turned blue when he heard it, and in the end, Chen Lei was so angry that he almost smashed the table: "This Ning Shanya actually wants my Chen family to present five young and beautiful women to him, what did Ning Shanya do with my Chen family?"

Chen Tangxuan said: "This Ning Shanya is greedy and lustful by nature, and he will repay him, after I directly rejected his request, I have a grudge against my Chen family, and in the past few days, I have been looking for trouble almost every day, targeting my Chen family." ”
