I have a weird dynasty

Chapter 258: Subjugation (asking for monthly ticket)

After Du Xiaochuan took the money given by Ruan Shichun and left the village, he immediately went to the village of the Luo brothers, the most powerful force in Jinfeng Mountain.

After telling Ruan Shichun that he was willing to surrender, Luo Danian immediately asked his younger brother Luo Dayong to bring fifty people to take over the Ruan family's village.

Du Xiaochuan was originally planning to leave after delivering the message, but Luo Danian was afraid that Du Xiaochuan would go to other places to deliver the message, so he detained Du Xiaochuan and asked him to lead the way to the Ruan family's village.

In the woods, Luo Dayong held a big knife, grabbed Du Xiaochuan by the back of the neck, and asked in a threatening tone, "Did you really not set a trap for me? Why is it so quiet in this village? There's not even a sentinel?"

Du Xiaochuan had not mentioned before that a female Shura had come to the village, and he dared not mention it now. He shrank his neck and said, "Second Master Luo, I am just a messenger. I really don't know the specific situation."

A group of people spread out in the woods, hiding behind the trees, observing the village in the distance.

After waiting for a while, I saw two people carrying hoes and driving oxen out and heading towards the back mountain. They didn't even close the gate of the village or straighten the chevaux de frise.

Luo Dayong scratched his head, "So casual? Why do I feel like there's something fishy going on? Are people lying in ambush in the village?"

"No, everyone is out reclaiming wasteland."

A sudden female voice came from Luo Dayong, startling him so much that he almost jumped up. In fear, he swung out with a knife, turned around and ran, but found that he was suddenly trapped in a dark place. All the sounds around him disappeared, and it became cold, silent and creepy.

Luo Dayong paused and turned his head tremblingly, to see that all his men were tied up with strange red threads in various shapes and hung under the tree. They struggled hard but could not make any sound.

A girl in dark red tights and a strange bronze mask on her face leaned casually against a tree, looking at him with indifferent eyes.

"You... who are you?" Luo Dayong's legs were trembling.

Sangque folded his arms, raised his chin, and pointed to the stockade in the distance, "Over there, that's mine."

Luo Dayong rolled his eyes left and right, suddenly dropped his sword, and fell to his knees.

"Lady, we are blind and have offended you. You should just ignore us. We are all here to make a living. We should help each other in the future. If there is any benefit, you should take the lion's share. Do you think so?"

Sang Que stood up straight and adjusted the bronze mask on her face. The mask was a souvenir she bought at a museum somewhere, and she put it in her bag this time.

"Go back and tell your boss that before the sun sets tomorrow, either he comes to see me or I go to him. It's up to you to decide."

After saying that, Sang Que waved his hand, and the night turned into day. Everyone fell to the ground, screaming and wailing in pain.

Luo Dayong looked at Sang Que in disbelief. He didn't quite believe that Sang Que would let them go like that, but Sang Que did not take any other action.

Seeing this, Luo Dayong did not dare to stay for a moment and hurried back to report the news.

These are the sneak attacks. Killing them is as easy as playing a game!
Her meaning was very simple. Either the big boss brought people to pay homage to the mountain, or she went over to destroy their village. Is there any other choice? !
"You stay!"

Sang Que called out to Du Xiaochuan, and Du Xiaochuan turned around stiffly, trembling all over, his face pale.

"Lady, this is all Ruan Shichun forcing me to do this. This is not what I wanted to do..."

"Well done!"

"I'm really not... huh?"

Du Xiaochuan was stunned by Sang Que's sudden praise. He didn't know what Sang Que meant.

"There are still three companies that haven't been notified, right?"

Du Xiaochuan blinked, nodded blankly, and then immediately shook his head.

"Go ahead. The other three families have also been notified. Don't go to the government office. It's too far. Come back and farm the land as soon as possible after notifying them."

After saying that, Sang Que disappeared in front of Du Xiaochuan. Du Xiaochuan was about to cry. What did this mean?

...When Sang Que went back to find Zhang Junyao, she was almost scared to tears by Yin Tong. Although she was very scared, Zhang Junyao still finished the drawing, but some of the lines were not straight, like waves.

Afterwards, Sang Que took Zhang Junyao to many places to survey the terrain.

Generally speaking, there are many places suitable for farming in Jinfeng Mountain, and some of the mountains can be leveled to make terraces.

The tree resources are also very rich. There will be no shortage of wood in the short term. There are also many types of trees. I asked Zhang Junyao to help draw the mulberry birds and then check to see if there is any wood that is more valuable in modern times.

The main stream of the 'Xuanhe', the largest river in Jinzhou, is blocked by a dam, but there are still several tributaries flowing through Jinfeng Mountain. Water source is not a problem, but no one dares to go to the river to fetch water outside of noon, so canals need to be dug to divert the water.

As long as the water flow is shallow and small, water ghosts will not suddenly appear.

Sang Que also saw the other four villages in Jinfeng Mountain. They were indeed quite large and looked richer than her, at least with more people.

Sang Que did not disturb them, but observed quietly, letting Zhang Junyao draw pictures and record them, and then left.

There is a depression in Jinfeng Mountain, which is a mass grave. Originally, it was a sunny hillside with plenty of sunshine, but various villages burned corpses here, and under the conditions here, the corpses could not be fully burned.

Over time, the mass grave became a place with a heavy gloomy aura. There were no trees around it, and when the sun shone, it was always blocked by clouds, keeping the mass grave in the shadows. It was a good place to keep corpses.

Sang Que was busy until nightfall, and then he took the hungry Zhang Junyao back home.

As soon as they entered the village, Li Ping came and told Sang Que that the person who had been sent to deliver the letter to the Zhang family had returned and agreed to redeem the person.

However, it is impossible to raise ten carts of grain, so the ransom can be raised to five thousand taels, and the person can be handed over to the small stone forest outside Jinfeng Mountain in three days.

"Can't your family afford ten carts of grain?" Sang Que turned and asked Zhang Junyao.

Zhang Junyao frowned. Her family owned several grain shops. Under normal circumstances, ten carts of grain would not be a problem for her family. The problem was that the situation outside was not normal now, so the grain could not be delivered.

Zhang Junyao reacts quickly and has a businessman's keen sense of the situation.

"Is there something going on outside? Is there a war going on somewhere?" Zhang Junyao asked.

Li Ping was a little surprised. "How do you know? Zhuzi came back from Pu'an County and said that the news has spread all over the county town. The border between Qinzhou and Yunzhou has been lost, and there are rebel uprisings in the east and west of Qinzhou."

"Jinzhou has urgently mobilized food and troops to help Qinzhou. Now the price of food outside has increased several times. If things go wrong, they may have to recruit soldiers again. How can people survive like this?"

Sang Que didn't expect the situation to develop like this. If it weren't for the fact that there was no corpse nest in Wangshan City until the end, the entire Qinzhou would probably have fallen into the hands of the ghost troupe.

Is the Ghost Troupe planning to overthrow the entire Xuan Dynasty? Is their ambition so big?
"I understand. Please ask the stove to get us something to eat."

……

In the next two days, the chiefs of the other three villages in Jinfeng Mountain came one after another. Without Sangque saying much, the three chiefs chose to surrender and paid money, food and people.

Ordinary people are powerless to fight against the third-level evil spirits, let alone Sang Que, a fourth-level ghost walker. Moreover, having such a powerful ghost walker like Sang Que as their leader might be his chance.

In the end, only Luo Dayong, the person Sangque met first, was left, and he never showed up.

That afternoon, when Sang Que was still wondering whether the two brothers would rather die than surrender and had already run away, Luo Dayong came alone and shouted "Help" outside the village.

When Sang Que went out, he saw that Luo Dayong was covered with wounds. He knelt down and begged when he saw him.

"Lady, please save my brother. A female zombie in red rushed into our village and killed many people. That zombie was so evil that I had a hard time escaping. My brother and the others are still trapped in the village!"

When Sang Que heard this description, she suddenly remembered the jumping zombie that she and He Buning had subdued together in Ziyun Mountain. It was a female zombie in red clothes.
