Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

The little snake spat out the message and rushed towards the fallen guard.

It was very fast. It jumped up and was in front of the guard in almost the blink of an eye.

The guard who landed on the ground screamed, got up in panic, took out a blunderbuss and was about to shoot.

But there was a time delay. By the time he took out his gun, the little snake had already killed him.

"careful!"

Fang Yuan and others exclaimed.

Du Miaoyan, who had quick eyes and quick hands, threw an object casually and hit the little snake.

With a snap, the little snake fell to the ground, struggling and twisting on the ground. It was no longer able to attack and was on the verge of death.

"Scared, scared me to death, thank you Madam for saving my life!"

The guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and gasped.

It was so terrible, he just felt death coming.

Just a little bit, almost a little bit, I have to explain it here.

"It's fine."

Du Miaoyan nodded and said.

He looked at the little snake solemnly.

How could he still be bitten by a snake even though he had already sprinkled it with sulfur?

Thinking of this, Du Miaoyan looked at the female boss with evil eyes.

"Sulfur is used to repel snakes, but not all snakes are afraid of sulfur."

"That snake should be a colorful snake cultivated by Jingjue Country. It is not afraid of sulfur."

The female boss could tell that Du Miaoyan was suspicious of her, so she waved her hands to explain.

There are many kinds of snakes in the world, and not all snakes are afraid of sulfur.

In particular, almost all the snakes cultivated by Jingjue Kingdom are not afraid of sulfur.

Therefore, why Jingjue Country is so scary is because the poisons in their territory cannot be judged and solved with common sense.

"Really? Let's talk about it later."

"Next, let's rely less on guns and use knives more."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

At this moment, he felt a foul smell in the wind.

This stench has the effect of making people fall asleep, so it is not advisable to stay here for a long time.

So he immediately asked the guard to get on the horse of one of the guards, hurry up and leave here together.

"Be careful, there is danger ahead!"

Suddenly, the female boss exclaimed.

She tightened the reins and soon stopped.

When Fang Yuan and others saw this, they also stopped.

Everyone looked ahead and saw a few rabbits grazing there.

"Let's take a detour."

The female boss said with a trembling voice.

"Are those few rabbits dangerous?"

Fang Yuan frowned tightly.

Although everyone said that Jingjue Country is full of dangers.

But it’s just a few rabbits, what danger could there be?
The same goes for Du Miaoyan, who feels that the female boss's behavior is too extreme.

Maybe she wanted to make the matter bigger, so that she and others would listen to her more, and avoid Fang Yuan from having to settle accounts in the future.

"Have you ever seen a rabbit with blue eyes?"

The female boss swallowed her saliva and said in a deep voice.

Ok?
Fang Yuan frowned again.

Only then did I notice that the rabbit's eyes were blue.

Generally speaking, rabbits' eyes are red, and this is the first time I've seen blue.

This was the first time for Fang Yuan and others to see such a strange phenomenon, and they all looked at the female boss, waiting for her explanation.

"This is a unique rabbit from Jingjue Kingdom."

"Very poisonous, cruel, and gregarious. They pounce on every injured one and wait until they die."

The female boss explained.

She fell off her horse, picked up a fist-sized stone on the ground, and threw it in the direction of several rabbits.

The stone fell to the ground and rolled on the ground, rolling to where several rabbits were grazing.

Suddenly, something shocking happened to Fang Yuan and others.

I saw a few docile rabbits eating grass suddenly going crazy.

They pounced on the rocks, biting furiously.

At the same time, rabbits were rushing from all directions, very fast.

In a matter of seconds, the stone thrown by the female boss was covered in many layers, both inside and outside.

After biting it several times, as if it knew it was a stone, it slowly stopped and returned to its docile eating behavior.

"It's hell."

Fang Yuan and others were greatly surprised.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have believed it was a rabbit.

"Trust me now?"

"If you didn't know it, you would have been eaten up by them by now!"

The female boss said with a sigh.

With that said, she rode her horse and walked to the other side.

Fang Yuan and others no longer had any doubts and kept up with the female boss.

Even if you miss the rabbit if you just change the route, there will be other dangers.

Along the way, Fang Yuan and his group almost got hit several times and were almost left in the forest.

It originally only took half an hour to walk, but it took a full two hours to reach the foot of the city gate.

"It will be safe once you enter the city."

"Generally, there are no poisons in the city. If there are, they are raised by themselves and rarely hurt anyone."

The female boss breathed a sigh of relief, her face full of exhaustion.

Under his leadership, Fang Yuan and others entered a city in Jingjue Kingdom.

The people of Jingjue Country are not much different from the people of other Western Regions. They are all of the same race.

"In the Kingdom of Jingjue, don't touch animals used by others. Those animals may be poisonous and will be disliked by their owners."

The female boss said as she walked.

Finally, everyone found a relatively luxurious inn to stay at.

Originally, Fang Yuan thought of rushing out tonight, but looking at the situation, he didn't dare to rush out at night.

"I'll go find out where they are for you later."

The female boss said proactively.

"Don't worry, we'll go after eating."

"Miaoyan, you and her go and inquire about Hongxu and Qinggao."

Fang Yuan arranged.

Jingjue Country is too dangerous, and the female boss must stay by her side.

If she was allowed to go alone, it would be bad if she escaped. Someone would have to watch her.

The most suitable candidate here is Du Miaoyan, who is also a woman and has strong martial arts skills.

"Ok."

Du Miaoyan has no objection.

Naturally, the female boss had no objection.

Soon, Fang Yuan and others tasted the local delicacies in Jingjue Country.

While it was still dark, Du Miaoyan and the female boss set out to find out about Hongxu and Qinggao.

"Lai Yingzhe, go and find someone who is willing to be our guide. Money is not an issue."

After Du Miaoyan left, Lai Yingzhe had other arrangements.

It is unwise to rely solely on female bosses.

If she had other ideas, she would still be the one to suffer.

And after all, she is not from China, so she probably doesn’t understand many things.

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Lai Yingzhe nodded in agreement, took a translator and left.

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment, then left the inn with a translator and walked around the city of Jingjue Kingdom to see if he could find anything.

Hongxu and Qinggao only told them to bring money to Jingjue Country, but how to contact them after arriving in Jingjue Country became a problem.

Walking on the street, Fang Yuan felt the difference between this place and the Tang Dynasty.

It's not that developed, and most people don't live in lofts. Only rich people can afford to live in lofts.

However, this is not a royal city, so it may be a little behind, but it is still somewhat different from ordinary county towns in the Tang Dynasty.

Generally speaking, the Western Regions are relatively poor and not as good as the Tang Dynasty.

Ok?
Suddenly, Fang Yuan stopped and looked at a store in surprise.

Bafang Group? !
Next to a store, there are four Chinese characters written, Bafang Group.

Bafang Group is a group in its own hands. It seems to be just one or two stores in the Western Region, which Jingjue Country should not have.

Fang Yuan was sure that there would be no Bafang Group store in Jingjue Country, but he still walked into the store.

This is a place that sells bowls and chopsticks, which seem to be ceramics from the Tang Dynasty.

There was a middle-aged shopkeeper at the counter who was swatting flies. When he saw Fang Yuan coming in, he glanced at him and ignored him.Fang Yuan looked around casually and felt that it was not interesting. This was not a product of his, maybe it just happened to be called Bafang Group.

"Let's go."

Fang Yuan said indifferently.

It's okay if I don't say it. As soon as I said it, the shopkeeper stood up immediately.

"Wait, wait, your guest is from the Tang Dynasty in China?"

The middle-aged shopkeeper came over and spoke in very fluent Chinese.

Judging from his appearance, this middle-aged shopkeeper is not a Han Chinese, but a native of the Western Regions.

"you are?"

Fang Yuan said unexpectedly.

It is not easy to speak Chinese so fluently in the Western Regions.

"I, I am the shopkeeper of this store."

"Excuse me, is this guest Fang Yuan, or do you know Fang Yuan?"

the shopkeeper asked with a smile on his face.

"I am Fang Yuan, who are you?"

Fang Yuan's eyes narrowed, showing expectation.

Wouldn't it be possible to meet the clues left by Hongxu and Qinggai here?

"I, I was left here by Hongxu and Qinggao!"

"Please, what proof do you have to prove that you are Fang Yuan?"

The shopkeeper immediately became excited and his voice trembled.

But he still didn't believe Fang Yuan's identity immediately and asked Fang Yuan to reveal his identity.

"You are embarrassing me now. Did Hongxu and Qinggao leave any words?"

Fang Yuan frowned.

This is the Western Region, not the Tang Dynasty. How can I prove my identity with my token?

Moreover, Fang Yuan's current token has also been changed, from Duke of Zhou to King of Zhou.

With the change of identity, the identity token naturally also changes. The identity token should not be able to meet the requirements left by Hongxu and Qingwei.

"In which county did you and Hongxu Qinggao and the others first meet?"

The shopkeeper thought for a while, stared at Fang Yuan and said.

"Wuling County."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Yes, you are Fang Yuan!"

"Sir, I finally waited for you to come!"

The shopkeeper said excitedly.

The tears suddenly became a little wet.

"Speak slowly!"

Fang Yuan comforted.

"The villain is Hongxu who stayed here waiting for you."

"Originally, I was not the only one, but the others were cleared by the enemy."

"Originally, there were still people patrolling the outskirts of Jingjue Country. If they found out it was you, they would have taken them directly to the royal city, but they were also eliminated."

The shopkeeper said with a tragic face.

"enemy?"

Fang Yuan obviously noticed this.

In other words, after Hongxu and Qinggao returned to the Western Regions, they did not live a happy life, but made enemies on all sides?

"Yes, they are running for the position of saint."

"But because I have not been in Jingjue Country for these years, I have too few supporters and too little power, so I am at a disadvantage."

"So their campaigners targeted them and their supporters, so that Hong Xu and Qing Gao experienced life and death several times."

The shopkeeper said bitterly.

He is one of the supporters.

Because it is relatively secretive, I was sent here to wait for Fang Yuan.

Because he was not sure whether Fang Yuan would come, and Hong Xu and Qing Yao were losing the election, he was a little discouraged and didn't want to do any business anymore, so he swatted flies in the store.

"Why are they running for sainthood?"

Fang Yuan said very surprised.

They are just two of his maids, and now they are running to become the saints of the Jingjue Kingdom?
You must know that in Jingjue Kingdom, the saint is the king of Jingjue Kingdom. She has a respected status and is on an equal footing with the kings of the 36 countries in the Western Region.

"I don't know much about this matter, but the main reason is that Hongxu's mother was the chief priest of the Saintess Sect. The leader did not recommend a saint before his death, so the saintly woman was selected by the three chief priests. Hongxu Selected as a candidate for sainthood.”

The shopkeeper's status in Jingjue Country is not high, so he doesn't know much.

But with this explanation, Fang Yuan actually guessed it.

"That is to say, there are three candidates for the saint. The three of them compete. Whoever wins will be the saint of Jingjue Country. Is that right?"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"That's right, that's it."

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.

"What's going on with them now?"

Fang Yuan continued to ask.

"The situation is not very good and I may lose the selection at any time."

The shopkeeper said in a serious tone.

"What are the consequences of losing?"

Fang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, nothing happened and I wasn't too late.

"If you lose the election, you will be sent to the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes."

"Those who survive can become the new chief boss, those who don't survive hide in the belly of the snake."

The shopkeeper shuddered when he said this.

It can be seen that even though he is an extremely talented Chinese, he also finds Ten Thousand Snake Cave to be terrifying.

"Can you take me to see them?"

Fang Yuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, of course it is possible."

"But the two of them are in a bad situation now, and there will be many dangers on our way to see her."

"My suggestion is to go at night. We may not be discovered by the enemy, but we may be attacked by poison, which is equally dangerous."

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.

He wished he could take Fang Yuan to see Hongxu and Qinggao right now.

Now they are at a critical juncture and need Fang Yuan to help them.

But he also knew that there were many dangers in this trip and he didn't know how to go.

"No, go in the daytime, go in an aboveboard manner!"

"Give me some time and I'll send some people over!"

Fang Yuan thought for a while, and said in a deep voice.

It's too dangerous to go there at night, and it's also dangerous to go there secretly.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to go there openly and send more people to go there.

"Going openly?"

"Then should I inform them in advance?"

The shopkeeper was a little surprised, but did not object to Fang Yuan's decision.

He knew that Fang Yuan was the foreign aid that Hong Xu and Qing Yao desperately wanted, and he must be good.

He is just a rough man and has no qualifications to oppose Fang Yuan's decision.

"want!"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

The most exquisite royal city.

The top officials of Jingjue Kingdom gathered in the grand pagoda.

The three chief ministers sat on the black throne, looking at Hongxu, Qinggao and others below.

There is a golden and jade-colored throne above the chief minister. It is the position of the leader of the Saintess Sect, the position of the saint, and also the position of the king.

In Jingjue Country, the saint is the leader, and the saint is the king.

"Sister Hongxu, I heard that your master who is wandering in the Tang Dynasty has come to support you. I wonder if he can come to the royal city alive?"

A charming woman spoke slowly.

Her lips are black, charming, noble and dignified.

The two styles are mixed together, which is very strange, but it seems to attract everyone.

"There's nothing he can't do without you having to worry about it."

Hongxu said proudly.

In the more than half a year since she came back, this is the proudest time for her.

In the past, she always kept her tail between her legs because she had no strength and no trump card.

Now that Fang Yuan is here, she feels that victory is in sight and she is no longer afraid.

"Then we'll wait and see."

The charming woman snorted coldly, looking at Hong Xu with eyes like a poisonous snake.
