Chapter 52 Disaster ([-])

Ye City does not stand on the riverside like Yang City, but it is not far from Xuan River.

In less than two hours, the carriage had already driven into the city.

Looking from the outside of the car, Jiang Yuan saw that the city of Yecheng was not big. The so-called "city of three miles, country of seven miles" refers to such a small city.Its prosperity is far inferior to Yangcheng.

The natural geographical conditions of Yangcheng and Yecheng are not much different, but the difference in wealth between the two is not small, which shows that the managers of Yangcheng spent a lot of thought at the beginning.

Today is the day when the Yecheng County Government and Dong Chongjun hand over. There are many soldiers maintaining order on the street, but the uniforms and armors are clearly divided into two categories.

Most of the soldiers in one category wore battle robes with foam nails and no armor, and the style was the same as that of Yangcheng. They were the troops under the government's control.

Another type of soldier is dressed in animal pattern leather armor, with a round guard inlaid with iron plates on the chest, a long sword on the waist, and colorful feathers on the helmet dancing with the footsteps.These well-equipped sergeants are obviously the Yi soldiers raised by Emperor Dongchong.

Looking at the difference between the two, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but lament Dong Chongjun's financial resources and power.

In addition to the soldiers, Jiang Yuan also felt a lot of the power of inheritance in Yecheng. He looked around and saw many noble men and women. These must be the children of the Lan family.

The carriage stopped in front of the county government office, Fei Qingquan did not get off the carriage, but said to Jiang Yuan:
"I'm going to pay a visit to Dong Chongjun. Lao Jiang will arrest the officials of Ye County here."

Jiang Yuan nodded, took two officials from Yangcheng, and got out of the carriage.

Fei Qingquan continued on in the carriage and disappeared at the end of the street.And Jiang Yuan walked into the county government office with the officials.

After explaining the purpose of coming to the yamen at the gate of the county yamen, the yamen servant quickly entered the county yamen to report.

After a while, a voice of dissatisfaction came from the county office:

"Is there a mistake? It wasn't Yangcheng county magistrate Cai Xing who came here in person, but sent a head catcher to pick us up? Forget it, let's invite him in. I'm currently in the process of handing over the household registration in Ye County and I'm so busy that I don't have time to take care of him. , take him to the side room for tea."

The yamen servant returned soon, Jiang Yuan smiled and didn't mind, and followed the yamen servant to the side room.

In the county yamen, besides the officials, there are also many people who have a sense of inheritance. They are either handing over documents with the officials, or counting their belongings, and they seem to be very busy.

Jiang Yuan was secretly on guard. He had only seen three people with the power of inheritance in the past, but he didn't expect to see so many people at once when he came to Yecheng.

The aura of these people was weak or strong, they just looked at Jiang Yuan twice, and didn't pay much attention.

After entering the side room, the yamen servant served tea and left, and then no one came to entertain him for a long time.

An accompanying official couldn't help complaining:

"This county government in Yecheng is really rude. They dare to neglect Jiang Butou. Do they know how to treat guests?"

Another official also echoed:
"That's right! Catcher Jiang came to pick them up in person, it's enough to save face. How dare they be so cold!"

In Yangcheng, Jiang Yuan's illustrious reputation has spread throughout the streets and alleys, and even burned into the hearts of county officials.

Therefore, in the eyes of these two officials, the number one expert in Yangcheng, the temporary captain of the county, and the extermination of the Dahe Gang, these titles add up to Jiang Yuan is far more noble than the county magistrate Cai Xing, but now Jiang Yuan is being treated like this , It will inevitably make them feel uneasy.

Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry, drinking tea quietly and waiting patiently.

The purpose of this trip, the most important thing is that Fei Qingquan asked Dong Chongjun for help.On my own side, it was just a formality.

After a while, someone finally came to the door.

The one who came was a middle-aged man wearing an official robe. He was tall and burly, and his eyes were shining. From the official robe, he was Lu Yu, the county captain of Ye County.

The other person was a young woman.

That girl was only in her youth, but she was born extremely beautiful.The skin is as fine and moist as warm jade, and the small lips are red without spots.Wearing a long pink satin dress with a red silk sash around her waist, it accentuated her already graceful figure.She was a rare beauty.

What surprised Jiang Yuan was that this woman also had the aura of inheritance power.

After the two stepped into the side room, it was Lu Yu who spoke first:
"Is Jiang Butou from Yang County? I'm the County Captain of Ye County, so be polite."

The tone of these words was loose and contemptuous, and the two words "capture head" and "county lieutenant" were bitten very hard. It seemed that the plan was to make a conclusion about the status and use the status to suppress people.

Jiang Yuan smiled and cupped his fists at Lu Yu.

The beautiful woman said with a smile:

"The little girl, Lan Xuan, has long admired the name of Catcher Jiang. This time, the little girl needs to go to Yangcheng for something, and she will go with Jiang Butou and others. I hope that after going to Yangcheng, Catcher Jiang can take care of her."

Jiang Yuan's heart moved, this woman is indeed from the Lan family.He returned the salute and said:

"Don't dare, don't dare."

When Lu Yu heard Lan Xuan's enthusiasm for Jiang Yuan, he became more and more annoyed.

He was already very dissatisfied when he was demoted from county lieutenant and merged into Yang county as head arrester.

After hearing the news of Zhou Cunjian's death yesterday, he thought that he could take Zhou Cunjian's place in Yang County, so he hurriedly sent someone to Yangcheng to find Cai Xing, the county magistrate, to find out.

As a result, the dispatcher reported that the county magistrate Cai Xing was vague and did not give any answer.

Later, the dispatched people were clever and went to the Yangcheng garrison to find acquaintances to inquire, only then did they know that the post of County Captain of Xiaoyang County had been taken by a boy named Jiang Yuan.

After getting the news, Lu Yu still didn't understand.So when they met, he would inevitably sneer at Jiang Yuan.

Lu Yu thought for a while, then suddenly said:
"I heard that Jiang Butou is very skilled in martial arts, and I have also learned a few moves. I wonder if Jiang Butou would like to teach you?"

The provocation in the tone was self-evident, and Lan Xuan stared at the two of them with big eyes full of interest.

Jiang Yuan asked:
"I don't know what level of master Lu Xianwei is?"

Lu Yu replied proudly:
"I'm not talented, and I'm in the fifth level of the four extremes!"

Jiang Yuan put down the teacup in his hand and stood up:
"In this case, I am qualified to give advice to Lieutenant Lu."

Lu Yu's eyes were annoyed:
"Jiang Butou speaks loudly!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and asked:

"I don't know how Lu Xianwei compares himself to Di Xudong, the leader of the Dahe Gang and the eighth level of the Four Extremes?"

Lu Yu gritted his teeth and said:
"Di Xu Dongyang City's number one expert has also been heard in Ye County. Although his skill is not comparable to him for the time being, this official will soon achieve greatness. It won't be long before he can reach the eighth level of the fourth extreme! As an official in Yangcheng, he will definitely not give Di Xudong a chance to be arrogant!"

Jiang Yuan laughed, stepped forward and patted Lu Yu on the shoulder and said:

"Lieutenant Lu, that Di Xudong is not as powerful as you think. His biggest weakness is his intolerance. I beat him to death with less than twenty punches."

Lu Yu trembled all over, looking at Jiang Yuan in disbelief:

"You beat Di Xudong to death? You're talking nonsense!"

Jiang Yuan said with a smile:

"Lieutenant Lu, it seems that your news is not very well-informed. If you want to ask me for advice, you have to get to know me first."

The two officials who came with Jiang Yuan also said at this time:
"Jiang Butou didn't talk nonsense, but Di Xudong didn't abide by the law, and Jiang Butou has personally executed him!"

"Everyone in Yangcheng knows about this matter, and the Dahe Gang was also eradicated by Jiang Butou! Now the number one expert in Yangcheng is our Jiang Butou!"

After hearing this, Lu Yu's face changed from blue to white.

At first, he thought that the masters in Yangcheng were no more than Di Xudong, Xia Mingxuan and Zhou Cunjian.He really didn't pay attention to a headhunter who appeared out of nowhere, let alone bothered to find out.

Who would have thought that such a rookie would have such formidable strength.

To be able to beat Di Xudong to death was at least the strength of Kaiyuan Realm.

And with such strength, he simply couldn't compete with it.And I even said that I want to learn from him
Thinking of this, Lu Yu couldn't speak for a while, and stood there awkwardly.

Jiang Yuan didn't bother to talk to him, but turned around and said to Lan Xuan:
"I don't know Miss Lan and Dong Chongjun."

Lan Xuan said with a smile:

"Jiang Butou is just good at talking and joking. The little girl is just a collateral branch of the Lan family, so she doesn't dare to have much relationship with Jun Shang. But Jiang Butou is actually a child of the Jing family. Then we should get closer in the future."

Jiang Yuan was a little surprised, he didn't expect this Lan Xuan to know his situation.He laughed:

"It seems that Miss Lan's news is far more well-informed than I imagined. In fact, I still can't believe that I have a relationship with Jing."

Lu Yu on the side heard this and looked at Jiang Yuan in horror:

"You are still a child of the public clan?!"

If Jiang Yuan was only a martial artist at the Kaiyuan Realm, although Lu Yu didn't dare to compete with him, at least he still had a lot of resentment in his heart.

But now that Lan Xuan knew that Jiang Yuan still possessed the power of inheritance, even Lu Yu's resentment disappeared.

People with the power of inheritance are no longer fighters to compete with.

Even if his position is taken by Jiang Yuan, Lu Yu will not complain anymore, he will only take it for granted.

After the shock, Lu Yu sighed, straightened his clothes, and then saluted Jiang Yuan respectfully:
"Jiang Butou, I have offended you before. I hope Jiang Butou will forgive me."

Jiang Yuan smiled and said:

"What's the matter, everyone will be colleagues in the future and work together. I also hope that Lu Xianwei will give you a lot of advice."

Lu Yu bent his waist deeper:
"Don't dare, don't dare!"

Standing behind Jiang Yuan, the two officials couldn't help holding their heads high, feeling that Lu Yu's attitude at this time was the correct one.

The carriage carried Fei Qingquan out of the city and headed for the suburbs.

The terrain of Ye County is lower than that of Yang County. Whenever the Xuan River surges, Yang County will hardly be affected, but Ye County is often flooded.

Therefore, Ye County's sacrifice to the river god is far more grand than that of Yang County.

On the outskirts of Yecheng, a huge Hebo Temple was built with a lot of money to worship Hebo.

But now, the Hebo Temple has become Dong Chongjun's temporary residence, and Fei Qingquan's goal is also here.

After the carriage stopped, Fei Qingquan lifted the curtain, and a strong smell of blood came over his face.

I saw more than a dozen sharp long poles erected on the loess open space outside the temple, and some men and women hung on the long poles.The crows gathered and pecked at the men and women, splashing some sticky blood from high altitude from time to time.

Fei Qingquan frowned at this scene, he knew that these were slaves punished by Lord Dong Chong.

The feudal lord has absolute rights within his fiefdom.

The world has heard of Dong Chongjun's actions for a long time. He is brutal and domineering. He kills living people not only for sacrifices, but more often just to satisfy his perverted desires.
