Boots of the Heavens @ Chapter 67 Impulsive Punishment IV
Author: polarisa
In the early morning of February 26, the sky above the entire town of Dongwei was still filled with the morning fog that is common in Haicheng, full of lazy atmosphere. Suddenly, the rapid and chaotic sound of horses' hooves in the front and rear convoys broke the tranquility that the Acropolis should have. Subsequently, the door of Qingyunfang opened, and two teams of guards came out of the workshop and lined up on both sides.
Outer Gate Elder Du Weifeng, Archdeacon Qin Zhigang, and Battalion Leader Sun Jin appeared in front of the Fang City Gate, waiting for three groups of horse convoys to drive to them. The first to arrive was the envoy of the county of Tokai County and his guards, and the convoy was quite neat. Then there were the inner sect elders of Qingyunmen stationed in Donghai County and the disciples of the two teams. In this group of convoys, there were disciples from the sect who rode horses, and the team was a little messy. The last one to come was a mixed team, including the coffin purchaser sent by Qingyunmenfang City last night, and all kinds of people from Donghai County who came to inquire about the news.
The county guard envoy got out of the carriage, and after a little greeting with Elder Du and Chief Manager Qin, he went to the dock stack under the guidance of the Fang Guard. The elder of the inner gate who came from Qingyun Gate was Feng Zhiwu, this person seemed to be a good old man, and warmly greeted Elder Du and Chief Manager Qin, and then followed the guidance of Fang Wei.
The third group of purchasing merchants in the convoy drove to the wharf. All kinds of people in the convoy, some of whom were acquainted with Elder Du and Chief Manager Qin, also came to pay their respects, and then also transferred to the dock.
In the midst of the chaos, suddenly a person, taking advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, appeared in front of Elder Du, grabbed Elder Du's strong collar, strangled him tightly, and shouted: "Du Weifeng, where is Warren? Hand over Warren!" This person's cultivation should have broken through the refining layer, and Du Weifeng was choked by him and couldn't break free, and he couldn't speak.
The surrounding guards hurriedly came to the rescue, but were kicked out by this person with three punches and two kicks. Just when Manager Qin didn't know what to do, he suddenly saw a boulder fall from the sky, smashing this person directly to the ground and pressing him down. Even Dewey Feng, who was originally choked, was dragged and hit the side of the boulder.
Elder Du, Chief Manager Qin, and the three or six people around them were so frightened by the flying boulder that their faces were colorless, and they were a little glad that it was not themselves who smashed below. After relieving themselves a little, everyone remembered that this should be the new battalion leader Sun Jin's specialty. Looking back, this person was dancing to control the boulder, rising again, flying to the side of the fangmen, and using it as a tool for the town gate. The boulder is gathered by the earth-based aura in the heaven and earth, and after the boulder rune is sacrificed to generate the boulder, it can be controlled to fly around before the true qi in the talisman is exhausted. Once the true qi is dissipated, the boulder will fall and remain motionless, but it will not be able to decompose, and will only wait for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in it to slowly weathered into sand after it is lost.
Although Elder Du was knocked into a blue face and swollen nose, he couldn't say anything, it was estimated that Sun Jin was just such a skill, and he couldn't force him too much, not to mention that this would help him out of the siege. Two guards came over and stepped forward to arrest the offender, who was already seriously injured and could not be treated. Someone in the business trip who traveled with him knew him, and stepped forward and said: This is the foreign affairs elder of the Rong family stationed in Donghai County. Hearing this, Elder Du seemed to understand something, nodded without explaining, and beckoned Chief Qin and the others to go to the dock stack.
When Elder Du and Chief Manager Qin came to the dock, the county guard envoy and Elder Feng informed that they had already distinguished from the special faces of individual people, some of them were Jiangyang thieves and masters of the rivers and lakes who were absorbed by the Rong family, and some were the Rong family's original martial arts and high-level servants, all of whom were middle and low-level military positions sent by the Rong family to Sanwei. The county guard envoy emphasized that these people were not wearing military uniforms, but they were armed with customized ordnance in the army, and they could be identified as rebels.
Hearing that the county guard envoy thought so, Elder Du knew that the Rong family's trouble was coming, and it was not a small trouble, and someone in the upper echelons of the principality would impeach the Rong family.
The Rong family not only served as the Grand Sima of the Principality, but also took charge of the three guards; this practice of being in charge of one thing alone has always been criticized by people of insight in the Principality. The Mu family, who is now the Grand Situ of the Principality, has been ordered to form the Zhendong Guard, and it is estimated that the two guards will soon be handed over to the Xi family, who is the Grand Sikong of the Principality, and the Cheng family, who are the Grand Sikou of the Principality.
After examining the body, the county guard hurriedly left. Elder Feng didn't leave immediately, he lingered in Qingyunfang all night, Elder Du and Chief Manager Qin also greeted him in every way, and when he left on the second day, he generously left a team of guards, temporarily serving as workshop guards, and returned to Donghai County at the end of the year. This made Elder Du and Chief Manager Qin very happy, and Hua Lun went to the open sea to hunt, and the harvest was unknown, but the manpower had already broken off the two teams of guards.
The dock has been cleaned up, and the corpses of the rebels, the fang guards, and the guards have been loaded and temporarily stored in the Yizhuang of Qingyunfang on Langya Mountain, and the armor, crossbow arrows and swords are all stored in the fang market.
Another day passed, on the twenty-seventh of February, and Warren returned with two large ships, finally in time for the day before the auction. On the carriage and horse avenue these days, there are many troikas every day. Merchants from the three counties of the principality, as well as other nearby city-states, principalities, and merchants involved in the Cangwu Empire, all arrived one after another, preparing to participate in this auction.
As soon as Hua Lun returned, he informed Elder Du and Chief Manager Qin that four kinds of commodities had been added to the auction, one was two 50,000-stone sea ships, another was more than 400 sets of military-made armor, crossbow arrows and swords, the third was a limited number of squid beads, and the last one was naturally three purple spirit crystal beads. These are the finale items of the auction, along with some of the auction's most mysterious offshore specialties. The auction will be extended from two days to seven days, and the main event will be scheduled for the last two days, which is also the last reasonable extension of the auction.
Able to kill more than 400 martial cultivators of the bone refining layer and above, including the leader of the refining skin layer and the leader of the refining layer, the cultivation and force of the three of Hua Lun were stunned. With such cultivation and force, it is natural that there should be a rich catch in the open sea, just look at the squid beads. As soon as such news was released, people from all walks of life in Qingyunfang hurriedly sent messengers and left Zhendongwei overnight.
As soon as the four of them came back, they went to Qingyunfang to arrange affairs non-stop, and the Zhou family, Uncle Song and Belle were so anxious that they died. By the time they rushed back to the old mansion, Belle had already led Zhou and Uncle Song in the guest room. Seeing that Zhou and Uncle Song were also there, Warren smiled, and the old mansion became a meeting place for their family members in the future.
Belle sat obediently on Warren's lap, and the crowd was chatting passionately about the battles and adventures at sea. Belle and Warren's intimacy, in the eyes of Uncle Zhou and Zhou, there are some surprises and questions, although they will not be elated, but they are by no means unhappy like old fart.
Besides, in Zhou's view, her husband's turbulent sea life in the early years made the couple get together less and leave more, and at this time, instead of caring too much about the two children, it is better to focus on her husband. Hearing that her husband was the only one injured among the four, Zhou took a hard look at the old fart, blaming him for not taking care of his father, but letting his father be injured.
The old fart couldn't either, the situation at that time was that the three brothers were on the Dashun, and the father and the guards were on the same ship, who knew that the rebels would attack two ships at the same time. At that time, when he saw five or six crossbow arrows in his old father's body, the old fart was also frightened, but fortunately they were not the key parts.
