All sects work

Chapter 170 Miss Her Miss Her
The woman at the top was still wearing the familiar blue-purple clothes. She looked to be only about sixteen or seventeen years old, but her eyes...

Dong Niang didn't know how to describe it. Her black and white eyes did not show the vicissitudes of life, nor were they innocent, cold, or warm.

She looks at you, just looks at you.

I don’t know why, but at that moment of looking at each other, Dong Niang actually believed that she was “Heaven”.

When she was slightly stunned, she saw those calm eyes slightly curved.

"Okay." said Shi Xuanying.

The two young women, one named Dong Niang and the other named A Pu. Dong Niang was the woman who killed her enemy in the illusion on the rainy night, while A Pu had already thought of asking the government for help before the illusion unfolded, and analyzed the feasibility of this matter.

One dares to think, the other dares to do.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, A Pu's ideas are extremely simple and not smart at all, but you have to know that she was just a "frog" trapped at the bottom of a well before. She had to speculate and confirm more unknown areas from the small piece of sky in her eyes, so as to judge the direction to break out of the shackles, which required absolute wisdom and courage.

Shi Xuanying never despises seemingly insignificant "little wisdom" just because she has seen a bigger world.

The two did not expect to achieve their wish so easily. They were stunned for a moment before kowtowed happily: "Thank you, sir!"

"But you two are already past the age of practicing martial arts. If you choose to join the army, the upper limit may be very low. Even so, do you insist on joining the army?" Shi Xuanying asked.

The two looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.

"Yes!"

They grew up being beaten and scolded, and after getting married, they were rarely without injuries. Every time they were beaten, they dared not look directly at the abuser because they were afraid. They were also even more afraid of accidentally revealing the hatred in their hearts and inviting more violent beatings.

They were too eager to gain the power to fight back.

"Okay." Shi Xuanying also intended to train an army of women. Even though there were only two people who came to her on their own initiative, she felt that there was great potential. However, she was really short of manpower, so she might have to do this herself.

Oh! The first day Zhuang Qiqi left, I missed her.

"Before that, please follow me to do something." Shi Xuanying put away her emotions and made a decision quickly.

The two agreed without hesitation, and secretly made up their minds to persevere no matter what difficulties they encountered.

However, the two never expected it to be so outrageous!
Shi Xuanying ran to move the mountain in the middle of the night, and asked the two to follow behind to clean up the mountain road. The women of Xiao Chen State had been confined in a small courtyard for many years, and their physical strength and power were relatively weak. Moreover, it took a lot of courage to overcome the fear of being in the wilderness in the middle of the night.

At first, the two men were shivering in the dark rainy night wearing straw raincoats, but when they heard the rumbling sound of the mountain opening in front of them and felt the violent vibration under their feet, they unexpectedly calmed down.

What they had to do was not complicated. They just had to move the remaining rubble and trees on the road and then compact the loose soil with a wooden hammer. It was pure hard labor.

The two of them often sat at their looms from morning till night at home, and they were not lacking in patience and perseverance.

They first cleared away the small stones and branches that were easy to pick up on a section of the road. A Pu then found a stick of suitable thickness and used it as a fulcrum underneath to pry the larger rocks and trees. If they couldn't move them, they would just give up. Every time they gave up, they would tie a knot on their belt to count.

Shi Xuanying's consciousness focused on the situation behind her and she couldn't help but smile. In the second half of the night, the rain suddenly got heavier, and Shi Xuanying no longer held back and cleared the way faster.

"Old Cao! Old Cao!" Mrs. Cao pushed County Magistrate Cao hard to wake him up, and even pulled the clothes on the bedside table in, "Hurry up and get up! Is there an earthquake?"

County Magistrate Cao opened his eyes in a daze and felt a tremor beneath his body. He immediately woke up, quickly put on his coat, and rushed into the yard with his wife.

The heavy rain poured down on my head, and the chill penetrated my bones.

The maids hurried out with umbrellas to protect the two from the rain.

For a moment, the whole Tao County woke up and there was noise everywhere.

The shaking of the earth was not severe, but it continued intermittently and no one knew if it would suddenly become stronger, so they could only stand in an open place in the heavy rain and wait all night.

The next day.

County Magistrate Cao arrived at the county government office with dark circles under his eyes and happened to meet the county magistrate, who looked refreshed.

"Oh, Lord Cao has been working very hard recently." Shi Xuanying looked at him and felt more and more satisfied.

Unexpectedly, after walking two steps forward, I found that everyone in the yamen was in low spirits. I couldn't help but think that the workload had not been very intense recently. Were these people a little weak?
County Magistrate Cao resisted the urge to yawn and said, "There was an earthquake last night, and I stood outside for half the night. You seem to be in good spirits, sir."

"Hiss." Shi Xuanying sighed, "It was my fault for neglecting it. If I had known that you all couldn't sleep, I would have pulled you all out to work! What a waste of a whole night."

She seemed to be blind to the shock on County Magistrate Cao's face and began to make amends: "Come on, come on, come to the study, let's discuss the next arrangements."

County Magistrate Cao didn't know how he got to sit in the study, and how he listened to her plan to occupy Piaoyun County and Qingshan County. He reacted for a while before asking uncertainly: "So the earthquake last night was just the sound of you opening the mountain with your bare hands?"

"Hmm." Shi Xuanying was puzzled. "Do you have any opinions or suggestions?"

"No, no." County Magistrate Cao knew that she had a high level of cultivation, but he did not expect that she had reached the level of moving mountains and filling the sea. After the initial confusion, he actually felt at ease.

She has powerful military force, abundant resources, and the ability to recruit extraordinary people. As long as she herself is not crazy, the chances of success of her plans are obviously higher.

County Magistrate Cao could see that the county magistrate cared about the people, so he put aside his worries and decided to follow him: "The Fanjiang Basin is vast and sparsely populated. Piaoyun County and Qingshan County combined have less than 20,000 households. However, the people in the deep mountains are tough and don't like to contact outsiders. I'm afraid they are not so easy to subdue. Before the fall of the Little Chen Kingdom, that area was like an independent small country."

"I've been there to investigate before. The people there are just barely able to avoid starvation. They are not much better than the savages. They are xenophobic, so there's no need for us to rush to use force. Since the land is vast and the population is sparse, we can first gather a group of people to move in and build a new county, and bring in the food, clothing, shelter and transportation from outside." Shi Xuanying was reluctant to see so many laborers die in vain because of the conquest. "Unless it's absolutely necessary, I won't suppress them by force."

County Magistrate Cao suddenly stood up and saluted: "My lord, righteousness is great!"

"Why are you so surprised!" Shi Xuanying leaned back slightly, "Just call me Sir."

"Yes!" County Magistrate Cao sat down, feeling more relaxed, and asked with a smile, "Sir, what are the rules for the county government workshop and the girls' school? How will the people's relocation be arranged? The city has been very busy with grain planting recently, and the manpower is already stretched to the limit. There are also a lot of people making trouble because of your new decree..."

Shi Xuanying scratched her head.

The day after Zhuang Qiqi left, I missed her, missed her...
