Chapter 19
Ouyang Rong discovered that the water in Dragon City was really deep.

After going down the mountain, the official road to Longcheng County is blocked by temporary “lakes” from time to time.

The fields outside Longcheng County, like a piece of white paper being filled with circles drawn by children, have been cut into a whole country.

Fortunately, the incense in Donglin Temple is very prosperous, and many fishermen went boating to pick up and drop off pilgrims. Ouyang Rong, Xie Lingjiang, Yan Wuxie and others hurried on their way in this way, and sent Xie Xun to Penglangdu on the Butterfly Creek, and successfully sent him to Jiangzhou Xie Xun will transfer there and return to Bailudong Academy.

Speaking of it, Butterfly Creek is not a stream, but a wide river. This big river is winding and shaped like a wing of a butterfly, so it is called Butterfly Creek by the people of Longcheng, and there are various butterfly flowers blooming beside the creek.

It is located between Yunmengze in the south and the Yangtze River in the north, and it is also the main connecting waterway of these two major water systems.

Therefore, Penglang Ferry connects the north and the south. If you go north, you can go to the hinterland of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the most prosperous Jiangnan Road, and if you go south, you can go to Lingnan Road. The merchants trade is very lively.

And Longcheng County is distributed on the east and west banks of Butterfly Creek, and it is prosperous around it. Most of the buildings, including the county government, are crowded on the east bank, while the west bank is relatively loose, and there are some rich people in Longcheng. House and property.

Right now, even though the flood in Longcheng has not affected the bustle of the pier and the portability, only the refugees living on the streets with their families in and out of the city can vaguely describe the tragedy of the flood.

Ouyang Rong, Yan Wuxie, and Xie Lingjiang stood at the bustling pier on the east bank, watching Xie Xun’s boat drift away.

Zhen Shi only sent Xie Xun down the mountain, then went back to pack up his things to move to the county office, but did not follow.

The wind at the ferry was a bit strong, and the morning sun shone warmly on my body.

“Junior Junior Sister, please take care of me in the future.”

“Brother Lianghan, let’s address each other as equals, let’s just call each other.”

“also.”

Ouyang Rong didn’t care about Xie Lingjiang’s politeness, he turned his head and squinted at the other side of Butterfly Creek.

“Is there a market nearby, I’ll go get something.”

Xie Lingjiang asked, Yan Wuxie pointed her in the direction, and then only the young county magistrate and the blue suit were left in place.

“Mingtang, where are we going now? Should we go back to the county government office? I have already notified Diao Xiancheng and the others according to your instructions. They should all be waiting for us at the county government office now.”

“Not in a hurry.” Ouyang Rong shook his head, suddenly pointed to the opposite bank and said, “Whose family owns the high castle compound built on the mountain on the opposite bank? And what are the smoking workshops around the mountain doing?”

Yan Wuxie didn’t even look at it, he knew what the county magistrate was referring to, so he replied directly:

“That’s the Liu family compound. The workshop at the foot of the mountain is the famous Guyue Sword Shop in Jiangnan Daodu, and it’s also the property of the Liu family.”

“Guyue Sword Shop? Liu Family?”

Yan Wuxie patiently explained:
“Our Dragon City was the land of Wu and Yue in ancient times. In the pre-Qin period, it was a famous place for making swords all over the world. It seems that there was a sword-making master named someone who dug a mountain by the Butterfly Creek and set up a furnace for the emperor and princes. Sword casting… so some sword casting techniques have been handed down locally, there are many swordsmiths, but after the founding of this dynasty, this business in Dragon City has gradually declined, and there are only a few sword shops left, and Gu Yue is one of them A time-honored brand.

“And the Liu family is the largest powerful family in the local area. Their ancestors made their fortunes in Longcheng by doing water operations. However, they have always been just a powerful landlord before, but the young head of this generation of Liu family is very courageous. They spent a lot of money to take over in the early years. The decaying Gu Yue Sword Shop was merged with several other sword shops, and its business became more and more prosperous after that.

“We people love swords. Right now, the swords produced by the Gu Yue Sword Shop have long been popular among the upper circles of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I heard that they have become treasures on the desks of the royal family and the powerful in Guanzhong. It is already recognized as a famous sword-making shop. Even The swords made by the most skilled master craftsmen in the sword shop are hard to come by, and the governor of Jiangzhou has to queue up when he comes.”

“Then isn’t the Liu family suddenly rich?”

“It’s not just about getting rich. A few years ago, the Liu family also used Luoyang’s nobles to offer swords to Empress Wei. Long Yan was very happy, and was rewarded as a temporary honorary officer of the sword envoy. She was ordered to forge swords. Now even the local tax is exempted. Mostly.

“The Liu family is now the No. [-] wealthy family in Longcheng, and other gentry and wealthy families only look up to them. The west bank of Butterfly Creek is full of their sword stoves. A small half of the fertile land and properties in Longcheng belong to their family, and half of the people in the city belong to them. The business under my command is to make a living, and many foreign ships stop here to buy swords.”

“Well, master the pillar industry of the whole city…”

“Mingtang knows, why do the people in Longcheng call this Liu family?”

Ouyang Rong thought for a while, then smiled, “Isn’t it Liu’bancheng?”

“Hey, this is quite appropriate, but they are all the same. The people privately call the Liu family the Dragon King family, and say that the Liu family on the west bank is the Dragon King Temple that cannot be washed away by floods. Over the years, no matter how big the flood in Dragon City is, it has not been affected at all. It doesn’t affect them, but they get richer and richer, isn’t it just like the Dragon King.”

“Then let me guess, um, is the Liu family still a great benevolent person?”

Yan Wuxie was a little surprised, “How does Mingtang know? Could it be that he has heard of it before?”

He also said: “The young master of the Liu family is the young master Liu Ziwen, who is usually kind and charitable. In this flood, he was invited by the prime minister of Diao County. He also took the lead in building a porridge shed. He is indeed well-known in the county.”

Ouyang Rong looked at the row of sword furnaces on the opposite bank, squinted his eyes and said to himself, “Is this a local snake?”

Yan Wuxie suddenly remembered something, and raised his mouth, “Ashan’s family is the official slaves in the Gu Yue Sword Shop, so they follow the master’s family name as Liu.”

Ouyang Rong nodded, and finally knew why the word ‘Yue’ was carved on Ah Qing’s forehead.And there are not many official slaves and craftsmen like this in the sword shop opposite.

The young county magistrate stood quietly for a while, looking around the dilapidated wharf with the wind blowing from the river.

I just walked from Donglin Temple to Penglangdu, and the images of hungry people along the way are still lingering in my mind.

It wasn’t that he was cold-blooded and dereliction of duty, turning a blind eye to the refugees sleeping on the street behind him, and strolling slowly to enjoy the breeze.

He wanted to figure out a problem. Before the problem was figured out, no matter how much he devoted himself to disaster relief, it would be half the effort, because he would never be able to grasp the main contradiction.

Sometimes, man-made disasters are more terrifying than natural disasters…

At a certain moment, Ouyang Rong finally turned around.

“Let’s go, go to Xishi to find my junior sister, let’s go back to the county government.”

……

In a busy city about half a mile away.

There is food falling from the sky.

It really fell from the sky.

Roast chicken.

Grilled fish.

bird’s nest.

shark fin.

Tamales.

Wait, wait, these precious and delicious foods in the county are all falling from the sky.

It fell on the old stone slab of the main road in the downtown area.

It’s a pity that there is no bowl to catch it, and the fallen food is covered with dust, but it still looks and smells delicious.

Piping hot, still oily.

It was a lame little beggar who was the first to discover the miracle of “pie falling from the sky”. A piece of braised pork fell on the top of his head, holding his anger in his hands, he was at a loss at first, then rubbed his eyes, and then wolfed down, Almost bit off my fingers together.

Then, the lame little beggar pounced on him, let the food fall on him, and greeted him with his arms raised up.

If I guessed right, I wanted to use someone as an “empty dish”, but soon, the aroma of the meat also attracted other “empty dishes”.

The starving people who were already hungry on the street swarmed up.

Or lie down, or stand, or jump.

Crying, laughing, crying and laughing.

And tens of meters above their heads, there is an open window.

There is a big hand, grabbing delicacies, and throwing them out of the window, plate after plate.

It turned out to be no miracle.

Instead, someone feeds.

“Hey, I can’t just let my elder brother do good deeds alone. I have to do good deeds too. Our family is full of good people. They say that good people are rewarded with good things. I quite agree with it. How about you, don’t you cruelly disagree?

“So, please serve the food quickly. If I delay my good deeds, I will fly out with the cook. You know me, and everyone who flies out praises me for keeping my word.”

The first volume may write some bold things that I want to write… But the old practice, Xiao Rong is kind-hearted, just like the sword girl in Uemoto, she will not abuse the master and the heroine, everyone can eat with confidence

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 19
“What to do? He is about to catch up with us!”

Ma Hongjun looked at the menacing men behind his buttocks, and his stomach shrank with fear.

Tang Youyou pursed her lips and frowned without saying anything. The three of them were chasing after each other, but they seemed to be chasing no one else. This was both good news and bad news.

The good news is that the others can definitely escape, the bad news is that she has been blacklisted by these three people.

Now it seems that the three of them can’t come up with a decent thing to delay time, so they can only outsmart them.

Tang Youyou took out a sky cannon firework from the storage soul guide and fired it into the sky. The brilliant colors lit up the entire night sky.

Fortunately, Ah Yin is a soul beast and can collect a little bit of everything in the human world.

“I’m telling you, don’t chase me. I’ve already fired the flare. My uncle is a Titled Douluo! Run away for your life, otherwise it will be too late and you will be dismembered.”

While Tang Youyou shouted, she did not forget to run forward quickly. Her soul power quickly disappeared. At this time, Oscar handed over a recovery sausage.

“Eat quickly, it will restore your soul power!”

Tang Youyou ate it quickly before she could respond. The feeling of powerlessness that her soul power had disappeared instantly returned to her health.

No wonder he is a food-type soul master with innate soul power. This effect is really good.

“Huhu…Give…Give me! One!”

Ma Hongjun was so tired that he almost rolled his eyes. Oscar quickly inserted the big sausage into his mouth.

“eat fast!”

What Tang Youyou said just now really affected the three people chasing behind.

Titled Douluo!This little girl couldn’t possibly be carrying that kind of signal bomb, unless she had something like a storage soul guide. As for the title Douluo matter, the three of them had already believed it for 7 points, and they were gradually starting to think about quitting.

“Brother, even a titled Douluo can’t guard this girl all the time. If he knew that this girl was here, wouldn’t he overthrow our nest long ago?

She must have deceived us!Since his uncle is a Titled Douluo, he shouldn’t let her go. This little girl has memorized our appearance now. If we don’t kill him, we will be trapped in an endless pursuit in the future. “

The short man reacted quickly and thought of this immediately.

“That’s right! Even if she had an uncle with a title of Douluo, there’s no way he would have discovered her flare so quickly! What’s more, we abducted her hundreds of kilometers away.”

The bearded man had a ferocious look on his face and quickly picked up his speed to catch up.

“See if I don’t kill you! What about Titled Douluo? Titled Douluo can’t save you even if he comes!”

Tang Youyou saw that several people close at hand were about to stop breathing.

“The second soul skill! The tiger roars!”

Tang Youyou’s pupils shrank, and she turned to look at the soul skill coming towards her. She slapped Oscar and Ma Hongjun hard, causing their bodies to fly out driven by the soul power, and get away from this soul skill faster. spread.

“Exquisite core, possessed!”

The black hair instantly turned silver, the ears turned into pointed elf ears, and two strands of white hair flowed from the temples.

The huge amount of hair was tied into a sky-high braid, and the bottom was surrounded by metal butterfly hair rings.Metal wings as thin as cicada wings grew out from behind and instantly took Tang Youyou to fly upwards. Even with such a quick reaction, she could not help but have some scratches on her arms.

This is the first time she has felt unforgettable pain in this world. It turns out that being injured by a soul skill hurt her body so much!
Tang Youyou was so painful that she almost burst into tears…

“Tang Youyou!”

Oscar’s pupils shrank when he and Ma Hongjun flew out. He turned around and saw that Tang Youyou quickly completed the possession of the martial soul and successfully avoided this soul skill with the help of his wings behind him.

When Oscar and Ma Hongjun saw that Tang Youyou was fine, they stopped running forward.

Tang Youyou’s left arm was covered in blood, and you could almost see the bones inside.

Losing a lot of blood made Tang Youyou look very pale. Oscar was shocked when he saw Tang Youyou’s full appearance. He didn’t expect that someone would look like this after being possessed by a martial spirit. What a beautiful martial spirit this must be!

But now he has no time to appreciate it. He wants to make a super recovery sausage, and he has no time to restore Tang Youyou’s soul power, because the three people surrounded Tang Youyou.

“What kind of martial spirit is this? Why have I never seen it before?”

A flash of deep thought flashed in the short man’s eyes, and he looked at Tang Youyou with fear.

“Haha, there are so many you haven’t seen before!”

Tang Youyou’s ability to fly is a big advantage, after all, none of the following three can fly.

If he had sneaked away alone at that time, the three of them might not have been able to catch Tang Youyou.

Obviously Oscar also knew this, so he did not escape with Ma Hongjun when the three people surrounded Tang Youyou.

“Stubborn little girl, even if you are the pride of heaven, you are not going to die at the hands of our three brothers today.”

The bearded man laughed, as if something pleasant was about to happen.

“Hmph! Kill me! Then you just wait until the most powerful force in the entire continent wants you! I’m not kidding you.

Believe me, you will definitely be worse off than dead by then!
How did I die? You will die a hundred times more painfully than me! “

Even at this point, Tang Youyou still didn’t forget to say harsh words. She knew that there was no turning back now, so it was better to continue to act like a bully and make the other party feel a little afraid.

Tang Youyou’s move was indeed very good, but the short man among the three was really smart.

“Even if we kill you, what will you do? Now no one knows, we will kill those two brats later!
No matter if you come from the top sect power, by the time your tribe finds you, you will only have a handful of bones left.

Who would know it was us?Hum hum, you little girl is very talented for your age, and your wisdom is not inferior to that of an adult like me.

It’s a pity that you will die here before you grow up. No matter how much you say now, it’s useless. I have already seen through everything you know and think!We won’t be fooled. If we leave today, we will definitely die tomorrow. It’s better to ask you to die now. “

Tang Youyou’s lips turned white. Those two silly big guys were easy to deal with. It was this short man who could see his intentions at a glance.

Is it really true to the saying: Condensation is the essence?Although this man is not tall, he is big in brains.

Oscar clenched his fists at his side. He was really unwilling to give in. Now the situation was certain, unless Dean Flanders or the girl’s elders could appear here immediately.

Chapter 19

Downstairs, Wen Yan waited for more than half an hour and finally saw the translucent Wang Xin floating out of the building.

Zhang Laoxi frowned and immediately held up a black umbrella to cover her.

Wang Xin opened her mouth to say something, but no sound came out.

Wen Yan looked at Zhang Laoxi, who shook his head.

“Her last obsession is gone and will dissipate soon.”

“Since we are destined to meet you, I will find an opportunity to give your parents two talismans to keep them safe during the day and sleep well at night.”

Hearing Zhang Laoxi’s words, Wang Xin bowed gratefully, then looked at Wen Yan, bowed, and then his figure gradually turned transparent and disappeared completely.

“This is gone…”

“This is already the best outcome. A person like her who died violently and was trapped in the realm for so long has already been affected by the realm. Now that the realm collapses, she will also be affected. If she is forced to stay in the world for a long time, It’s not a good thing, and it basically won’t have any good results.”

“Thank you for this time.”

“Why are you so polite? I’ve gained some merit.”

The two of them exchanged a few polite words and walked out together.

After walking a few steps, I heard noises in the distance, and several security guards were running towards that direction.

……

“It’s useless for you to come after me. I don’t have any money even if you chase me here. I’m almost worried to death.”

Wearing a neatly ironed pink shirt, holding a briefcase in one hand and car keys in the other, the middle-aged man with combed hair was complaining with a grimace.

Opposite him stood a man with dark skin, a high hairline and an honest face.

Hearing Pink Shirt say this, the honest man’s expression became even more bitter, and he said calmly.

“Boss, I really have no choice but to come here to ask you for help. My family is waiting for medical treatment and I am really in need of money. Please give me some of the salary I owe.”

“I really have no money.”

Pink Shirt wanted to leave, but his arm was pulled. The expression on his face gradually became impatient, but after thinking about it, he still grimaced and opened his bag directly.

“See for yourself, it’s hard for me too. I’m so anxious all day long, my bag is cleaner than my face, and I have to stuff it with paper to hold it up.

It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, that’s just… By the way, how much salary do I owe you? “

“Six thousand five.”

“Oh, yes, it’s only over 6000, so why don’t I give it to you?

The chemical plant project was all funded by me.

Now that the chemical plant is closed, the boss’s problems seem to be getting bigger and bigger. I don’t even know who to turn to to pay my bills.

The tools, materials, and labor used when you work are all paid for by me.

I don’t even have money to pay property fees now! “

“Boss, I really need it urgently. If I didn’t need it urgently, I wouldn’t have come so far to find you. Please give me some.” The honest man became more and more anxious. He held on to his pink shirt and didn’t dare to let go, for fear of next time. No one can be found anymore.

“Let go, let go quickly, I have no money.” Pink Shirt wanted to push him away, but he couldn’t.

“Boss, please give me some money. I really need it urgently, and my children and the elderly at home are in the hospital. It’s really life-saving money. I can’t borrow the money anymore. If I didn’t have no choice, I wouldn’t run so far.” Come here to find you.” The man became more and more excited.

“Pei Tugou, let go quickly, let go, I have no money!”

The two of them were noisy and the sound got louder and louder. There were already people watching from a distance, and some people went to notify the security.

Several security guards saw the two people pushing and shoving from a distance and rushed over to deal with it. The property fees here are the highest among all the nearby communities. Many people from the Decheng government and various units live here, and several leaders also live here. If anyone complains, they will be fined.

Seeing the security arriving, Pink Shirt immediately gritted his teeth and shouted.

“Hurry and pull him away! Why are you guys guarding the door? You are not from this community, but you can just let him in!”

As soon as the security guard heard this, two or three people quickly came up and pulled Pei Tugou away.

“Boss, I really need the life-saving money.”

Pink Shirt adjusted his shirt and spat on the ground with a sullen face.

“No money, I don’t care how you found this place, just one sentence, no money.”

After saying that, looking at the security guards, they became even more angry.

“At your level, you can let anyone in casually, and you still want us owners to pay property fees. You are overthinking it!” As he said that, he took out his mobile phone, took a short video and sent it to the owner group.

“Everyone, look, this is our property. Anyone can come in casually. If I hadn’t reacted quickly, I don’t know what would have happened. I’m really a loser. The property fee is so expensive. At this level, who would pay it?” Who is wronged for paying the property fee?”

After posting the video, Pink Shirt turned around and left.

Watching the pink shirt go away, Pei Tugou sat helplessly on the ground, as if he had been drained of energy, with a trace of despair and numbness on his face.

A security guard watched the pink shirt walk away and helped Pei Tugou up.

Several security guards took Pei Tugou and sent him out of the community. After leaving the community, a young security guard did not leave in a hurry and quietly pulled Pei Tugou.

“That guy is not a good person. I know him, but he is the most troublesome. He complains about this and that all day long. He hasn’t paid property fees for more than a year.

A few days ago, he occupied someone else’s parking space and claimed it was his. Just because he bought the parking space and did not live here, he parked it every day and it became his. In order to save some money, he parked the car outside the community.

Brother, please don’t enter the community next time. If this is a complaint, we will definitely have to deduct money.

He likes to park on the roadside outside the community. If you block him there, don’t tell me what I said. “

The security guard quietly pointed out the location and left quickly.

Pei Tugou sat on the curb with a confused look on his face, his eyes full of confusion. He could no longer think of where to borrow money.

Not far away, Wen Yan, who was following out of the gate of the community, frowned slightly and looked at Pei Tugou.

After killing Feng Dongmei, his “I am your father” finally changed from 1% to 2%, and in addition to this fixed ability, he also gained a temporary ability.

There has been no response to this temporary ability, and Wen Yan hasn’t had time to figure it out yet.

Now, suddenly there is a reaction.

It was fine just now, but now, when he looked at Pei Tugou, he seemed to see blood starting to seep out of Pei Tugou’s body, slowly infecting his whole body.

A creepy feeling emerged in Wen Yan’s heart, and the reminder that he had no reaction when he met Feng Dongmei appeared again at this moment.

He saw his name Pei Tugou appear on Pei Tugou’s head. Blood also appeared above the white name, infecting the three words bit by bit.

His three words slowly turned into “Pei Butu Dog”.

Especially the word “Slaughter”, which is bloody and exudes awe-inspiring murderous intent. Just looking at it makes your hair stand on end, and makes your whole body feel chilly.

“Honest man.

Don’t cheat honest people, let alone make honest people anxious.

Generating temporary abilities… I already said he was an honest person. Do you really need the natural enemy professional ability to deal with an honest person?
Do you really need it? “

“…”

Wen Yan was speechless.

He was watching not far away just now, and he probably understood what happened. This old man came to ask for the account, but he was not given.

This old man has an honest face, and even his “professional” is an honest person. He is really the same both inside and outside.

Why would he be hostile to this old man for no reason?

Following Wen Yan’s thoughts, he saw that the word “no” behind the temporary ability twisted and changed for a while, and then turned into “nothing” again.

However, Wen Yan could still see that blood was constantly oozing from Pei Tugou’s body, and he was almost turning into a bloody man. His name still shone with an ominous light.

That creepy feeling of uneasiness still continued, and became more and more intense, slowly turning into an extremely dangerous feeling.

Wen Yan sighed secretly, honest man…

He bought three bottles of water in a nearby store and gave one to Zhang Laoxi. Then he walked to Pei Tugou, sat on the curb next to him, and handed him a bottle of water.

Pei Tugou came back from his daze and was a little overwhelmed when he saw Wen Yan smiling and handing him a bottle of water.

“Brother, drink some water first.”

Pei Tugou was a little embarrassed. He looked at the water that was put into his hand and didn’t know what to say.

“This this……”

“I heard vaguely just now, but I didn’t hear everything. Can you tell me what’s going on?”

Wen Yan only said a few words and felt that the creepy ominous feeling brought to him by Pei Tugou gradually dissipated.

Even in his eyes, he still saw Pei Tugou covered in blood, looking like a butcher who had just finished a massacre.
