casket of old days

Chapter 262
"Well, there are lessons in class." Thirteen Niang nodded hesitantly.

But although Thirteen Niang has learned it, she doesn't think much of it in her heart, that is, she has learned simple numbers and addition and subtraction, which meets the basic requirements of the labor camp.

So Chu Qiguang then asked a few math questions from Thirteen Niang's elementary school, which made the fox demon confused and answered about half of them intermittently.

On the other hand, the fox demon sister answered fluently, and even recited the nine-nine multiplication table.

Chu Qiguang asked curiously, "What's your name?"

The fox demon sister lowered her head and said, "Yiyi."

"Yiyi..." Chu Qiguang said: "Then you and your sister will work under Wang Cailiang first. If you do well in the future, I will ask you to be responsible for purchasing outside."

He thought to himself that this fox demon has good looks and strength, and is very familiar with human society. He also has a younger sister who can settle accounts, so he can take over the procurement work from Wang Cailiang.

"At that time, I have to arrange a few cat demons for their subordinates to watch..."

After instructing the two fox demons to study hard in class, Chu Qiguang left.

Looking at his leaving back, Thirteen Niang was a little skeptical: "Is this Tongtian old demon really not attractive?"

The fox demon sister on the side nodded, and said in a low voice: "Sister, I think this old demon who reaches the sky is not only suspected of being a Daoist, but also has the danger of mountains and rivers in his heart, and the strictness of a city in his chest."

"This Yaoyin Village has been recruiting soldiers and horses for a year, opening up wasteland and farming, and everything is booming. The wheat in this warehouse will be enough to feed an army of ten thousand people for several months by next year."

"The various systems in the village are also well-organized, with proper rewards and punishments. They don't oppress the demon people, but manage them properly."

"Just look at Qiao Zhi, his subordinate, who doesn't even count how many little monsters and how much money there are in the village. You know that Yaoyin Village controls the villagers like a commanding arm, and I'm afraid it's a strong man with a weapon. military."

"There are also those giant living corpses. Not only are their physical strength far superior to that of ordinary people, but the key is that they can understand commands and the number has been increasing. I secretly counted... I am afraid there are nearly a thousand of them now."

Thirteen Niang was slightly surprised when she heard this: "Thousands?"

The fox demon sister nodded: "Just such an army of living corpses, if they swarm out, they can immediately capture the nearby Qingyang County."

"I also heard from a few local monsters... This old monster who reaches the sky is probably related to the northern wolf clan, and has close contacts with several powerful clans of the big man."

Sufficient food, obedient demon people, an army of living corpses who are not afraid of life and death, and an old demon who is suspected of entering the Tao.

The more the two fox demon sisters thought about it, they felt it was not easy.

The fox demon sister Yiyi said: "I think this old demon has a big picture, and it can't be bought by mere beauty or money."

"Since he has set so many rules, then we will follow his rules, and we will naturally gain a place in this Yaoyin Village."

Thirteen Niang nodded: "You invite the other fox demons in the clan tonight, and we will communicate with them as well."

……

Chu Qiguang on the other side wanted to continue inspecting the granaries, workshops, sawmills, and blacksmiths... As a result, halfway through, he saw Qiao Zhi leading a group of little monsters to greet him.

Qiao Zhi complained, "Why don't you tell me when you're here. If the cat demon in the village hadn't informed me, I wouldn't have known about it."

"I'll just take a look." Chu Qiguang chuckled, then noticed the strangeness in Qiao Zhi's eyes, and asked, "What happened?"

Qiao Zhi and Chu Qiguang came to the room and sighed, "Something happened on the Nine Sides."

Chu Qiguang asked doubtfully, "Nine Sides?"

In order to deal with the northern monsters, the Han Dynasty set up military towns at nine key locations in the frontier, collectively called the Nine Frontiers.

Among them, Yunzhong Junzhen and Beining Junzhen are the leaders, just because the leaders of these two military towns are Martial Gods, regardless of martial arts, strength, and prestige, they are the same among the Nine Frontiers in the North.

However, after many years of operation, the Nine Sides army has become a tyrant. Relying on its own military strength and two Martial Gods, it has gradually become an unstoppable trend in recent years.

Before Chu Qiguang went to Yaoshan, he heard that there was another mutiny in the local area, and a censor was exiled, forcing the court to stop the reform of the nine borders.

Hearing Qiao Zhi talk about Nine Sides again at this moment, Chu Qiguang asked suspiciously: "According to what you said, shouldn't Nine Sides be settled by Mr. Wu Ge next year?"

Qiao Zhi scratched his head and said, "It was originally like this, but it seems that the situation has changed now."

"We got the news from Yisiman that the Northwest Wolf Clan and the Northeast Eagle Clan are now connected with Nine Sides."

"Yi Siman also said that Nine Sides agreed to switch and let the Yaozu go south...It's too absurd, and I don't know if it's true or not."

Chu Qiguang still remembered that Yisiman, the prince of the golden sword, was also considered an outstanding figure of the Yaozu. Last time he took a lot of effort to defeat the opponent, and temporarily reached a strategic partnership with the Northern Yaozu.

And in Qiao Zhi's narration, judging from the news from Yisiman during this period...

"Jiubian Junzhen also knows that the imperial court wants to attack them, and is unwilling to sit still, and even reached some agreements with Yaozu because of this."

"Join forces with the Yaozu? Is the Nine Frontiers Town in a hurry?"

Listening to Qiao Zhi's narration, Chu Qiguang asked strangely: "They don't know how to do this?"

Chu Qiguang listened to Qiao Zhi's information about the future, and the outline of the whole situation emerged in his mind for the first time.

"In the last life, Longsnake Mountain of Tianshi Dao was closed for one year, but in this life, Longsnake Mountain was unsealed in three months. According to Qiao Zhi... Tianshijiao supports the imperial court's reform of Nine Sides, and Nine Sides felt it. The pressure brought by Tianshi? '

'In the last life, the Chaoyaoshan tragedy seemed too inexplicable, but in this life, it greatly damaged the majesty of the Han Dynasty. '

'In the last life, Yisiman originally dealt with Huang Tiandao in Yongzhou during this time period, but in this life he connected with the demon clan in Lingzhou. '

'In the last life, Wu Siqi took control of the court more slowly than now, because Wu Wei in this life sent him more money, did it bring more pressure to the Nine Sides? '

"And the attitude of the Northern Tianyu School in this life..."

Chu Qiguang compared the differences between items, and sighed in his heart: "More and more differences have led to changes in the trend of history. The two Martial Gods on Nine Sides probably also made different choices."

Qiao Zhi said: "Yisiman still wants to see you recently, saying that he wants to make an agreement with you that after the monster clan goes south, we will also raise troops to respond..."

Qingyang County is not far from the border. Once there is chaos in the Nine Frontiers or the monster clan goes south, Chu Qiguang's foundation may suffer greatly.

Accompanied by Qiao Zhi's words, Chu Qiguang seemed to smell a breath of wind and rain.

Qiao Zhi sighed: "You said that we have been helping the big man all the time, and wanted to make the big man support him more. Why did the result... seem to be worse?"

Chu Qiguang said, "Are you trying to talk about luck?"

Qiao Zhixin said tiredly: "I don't study much about Feng Shui secrets, and I didn't believe in it before, but now we have done so many things, and the result is that the big man hasn't continued his life, and the nine sides have become more chaotic. I have no choice but to believe it." .”

Chu Qiguang said: "Don't think so much, at least the Nine Sides haven't messed up yet."

"What Yisiman said is just the words of a family of the northern demon clan. I don't think Jiubian is so easy to mess up."

"However, we do have to prepare early. In troubled times, only strength is the most reliable."
