I, seal everything

Chapter 34 Irony and Absurdity

After a while, Chen Zheng and Diao Hailong walked out of the foreign affairs hall one after another.

Although they received the same task, the two parties not only had no friendship but formed a bond, so there was no communication at all in the foreign affairs hall.

Until parted ways.

"Boy, I heard that Madam also rewarded you with a good knife?"

Diao Hailong suddenly stood still, looked at Chen Zheng's waist playfully, and said with a little jealousy:
"You're really lucky. That Zhong Ming was already insane, and he was seriously injured. The demon he turned into might not be very powerful, but you took advantage of it."

Chen Zheng glanced sideways, and said without hesitation:
"It's none of your business, if you have the ability, go and behead one, and let Madam reward you too?"

"Boy, I know you are appreciated by your wife, but you are too arrogant, right?"

Diao Hailong rolled his eyes and said maliciously:

"Human madness must be a disaster. Don't think that you are great. You are still very young in my eyes. If you don't believe me, let's take a gamble and see who will win this mission?"

Chen Zheng smiled: "Why, what do you want to bet on, my knife?"

Although Diao Hailong was very moved, he was also a little scruples about Mrs. Wumu for a while, so he changed the subject and said:

"Forget about the knife, how about we still gamble on the monthly share of viscera training medicinal materials? If you win, all my three-month visceral training medicinal materials will belong to you, and vice versa, how about it?"

Too lazy to talk to the other party, Chen Zheng nodded very casually: "Okay, I'll bet with you."

Diao Hailong smiled: "Okay, it's a deal, if you dare to make a mistake, you will die!"

After speaking, he turned around and left.

Chen Zheng didn't even look at the other party, but just sneered in his heart.

The fact that he agreed so happily was not because he was full of confidence, but because he thought Diao Hailong's words were bullshit and deliberately played tricks on him.

This person is not a good thing at first glance, the beam has already been tied, he doesn't believe that the other party will keep his promise after he wins, so he can't take it seriously.

With this in mind, he quickly went to the area of ​​the ordinary teaching dormitory, found Wu San and the others, and informed them of the situation.

This time he had to bring some people to the village to garrison, and he had no choice but to bring these three people with him.

And knowing that they were going to encircle and suppress a flying demon, Wu Sansan and the others had bitter faces at that time.

After all, the two congregants who were carried up the mountain had already shown how dangerous that demon was. They had already cultivated at this level, so why don't they put their heads on their belts?

However, Chen Zheng had to go, and he had a great record in beheading demons last night. Obviously, the three of them had no room to refuse, so they could only honestly go back and pack up their preparations.

By the next morning.

Led by a congregation named Zhou Shan, Chen Zheng and others were fully armed and went down the mountain.

Zhou Shan is an intermediate-level congregation with slightly older qualifications than Wu San and the others. He was stationed in the village with the team of senior congregation Sun Jin before.

Sun Jin and other members of the team suffered heavy casualties, but he was unscathed, so as a guide, he temporarily returned to Chen Zheng's subordinates.

Diao Hailong and his subordinates seemed to be going ahead of them, but the mountain stronghold was less than ten miles away from the village outside the forest.

Under Zhou Shan's leadership, in less than half an hour, everyone walked out of the deep forest and saw the scenery beyond the forest.

Then I saw a large area of ​​golden wheat fields between an extremely wide mountain basin, and the brilliant gold seemed to be impossible to see at a glance.

The traffic on the rice paddies, the breeze blowing, the waves of wheat surging, a rare scene of a bumper harvest.

Among the endless wheat fields, farmers and women are working hard in the fields, and looking further away, there is a vague village composed of earthen and wooden houses, just like a paradise.

Seeing such a scene, Chen Zheng was a little surprised:

"This year's harvest looks good."

Zhou Shan said very respectfully: "It's still Madam who has a good eye in choosing a site. There is plenty of groundwater here, and there is a lot of room to irrigate the farmland."

While talking, passing by patches of field ridges, the farmers who were working in the fields stopped their hands when they saw the people passing by, stroked their chests and bowed in a respectful gesture.

Chen Zheng glanced from a distance, and found that although these farmers were wearing plain sackcloth, their spirits were quite complete, and it was obvious that their lives were not too bad.

Wu San, He Daming and others who came to the village for the first time couldn't help asking:
"I heard that they farm for the church and only pay [-]% of the grain?"

Zhou Shan smiled:
"Of course, the land is divided into households. Each family pays [-]% and keeps [-]%. Madam decides the land administration. Every household is grateful to the gods. If it weren't for this, how could we gain a foothold here?"

[-]%
Chen Zheng sighed inwardly.

In the eyes of a modern person like him, [-]% of the rent is undoubtedly ridiculously high.

But this weird and frequent world cannot be judged by common sense. Most of the ordinary people who don't know how to practice are just the bottom of the bottom, basically no different from cattle and horses.

Before the family fled the famine, the original owner farmed the land for the aristocratic family, and received [-]% to [-]% of the rent. All year round, it was barely enough to survive.

Outside, similar situations abound. In comparison, the [-]% here can already be regarded as a paradise.

In a place of cults, the common people's lives are better than those under the Guangwu Celestial Dynasty, which is ironic.

Of course, because this village was established by the Tianmu God Cult by continuously plundering refugees from outside, it is equivalent to its own basic plate, and [-]% of it can basically meet the daily consumption of a group of believers, so it is natural not to be too exploitative.

It can also be seen from this that the Tianmu God Sect has great ambitions, and it is not just as simple as a cult.

With that in mind, it didn't take long for everyone to cross the large field ridges and arrive at the village.

The village currently has a total of 3000 to less than [-] people living in it, covering an area of ​​only one mile. When we first arrived at the gate of the village, a skinny old man came forward with a few young men, and said respectfully:

"Old man Song Dexin, welcome all the envoys of the Divine Cult."

This person is obviously a person like the village head, Zhou Shan immediately stepped forward and introduced:
"This is Chen Zheng, a senior member of my teaching, who is here to guard. Old Song, can you arrange the place to stay?"

"Of course, of course."

Song Dexin nodded again and again, respectfully said:

"My lords, please follow me."

As he spoke, he led the way first and led the crowd into the village.

There is an avenue in the middle, with rows of earthen houses and small courtyards on both sides. The village obviously has nothing to do with prosperity.

In addition, most of the peasant households went out to work, and those who stayed in the village were old and weak, women and children. When many people saw Chen Zheng and others passing by, they lowered their heads in respect or awe, as if they were welcoming some important person .

Having never experienced such a battle before, Wu San and the others couldn't help but hold their heads high, feeling a little smug.

Chen Zheng was also feeling weird.

These people, if they are put outside, they will definitely be street rats that everyone hates and everyone shouts and beats.

In the end, in this village, he became a highly respected master, how absurd?
