Chapter 25: Master Zhang Manages the River

"Wait!"

His voice was clear and full of energy, and you could tell he was a handsome and healthy young man.

The townspeople looked for the name and saw a handsome young man with a sword at his waist walking out from behind and coming to the front of the crowd.

"Presumptuous, delaying the sacrifice, disturbing the Dragon King! What crime do you deserve!" Tan Kui shouted, but halfway through, he felt that the person in front of him was unfamiliar and asked, "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"

Zhang Wei cupped his hands and said, "I'm just a wandering cultivator here. I heard that there was a ceremony to sacrifice the Dragon King here, so I rushed over to see and pay my respects to the beauty. But I didn't expect to see you guys carrying these poor children. As a sacrifice, I want to ask for an explanation for this cruel act of human sacrifice!”

Hearing that Zhang Wei was just an outsider who couldn't stand the sacrifice, the leaders of the three major families immediately sneered with disdain.

Zheng Qiang even mocked: "Humph, who did I think? It turns out he's a stinky guy from out of town who came to our Blackwater Town to meddle in other people's business."

"This is our internal matter in Blackwater Town. You, an outsider, should stay out of it! I tell you, you can't control this matter! Come here, give him to me... Stop, little brother, you have something to say! You have something to say!" "

As soon as he said the cruel words, before his servant came forward, Zheng Qiang suddenly felt a chill on his neck. When he lowered his head, he saw a long sword with cold light lying across his neck.

Suddenly I broke out in a cold sweat!

Zhang Wei put his sword across Zheng Qiang's neck and said quietly: "What did you just say? That I shouldn't take care of it? You still can't take care of it?"

As he spoke, Zhang Wei pushed his long sword forward. Zheng Qiang knelt down and said tremblingly: "No, no, no, no, no, no! It's in charge! You're in charge, young hero! No one is better than you." I can take care of this!"

At this time, Tan Kui and Xu He drew their swords when they saw that Zhang Wei had a disagreement. They quickly ran up behind Cai Xiangu and said, "Xiangu, this person is not a good person."

However, Cai Xiangu completely ignored Xu He and Tan Kui's thoughts at this time. At this moment, her eyes were fixed on the long sword in Zhang Wei's hand.

"Magic weapon! Yes, that must be a magic weapon!" Cai Xiangu screamed in her heart, the greed in her eyes could not be suppressed at all.

"It would be a waste of time for such a magic weapon to fall into the hands of this junior who has never even entered the Dao. It should be my chance!"

In Cai Xiangu's view, Zhang Wei is just a young knight who travels around the world with the help of magic weapons and likes to fight injustices. She has seen many such people.

Then, Cai Xiangu put on a friendly expression, walked out under the frightened eyes of Tan Kui and Xu He, and said: "Little brother, don't get angry. You are worried that these children are human beings." It’s normal, but this is not a sacrifice, but to let them go to the Dragon Palace at the bottom of the river to serve the Dragon King and enjoy his blessings, don’t you think so?”

As she spoke, Cai Xiangu shouted to the onlookers. It immediately attracted the support of everyone.

"right!"

Someone even shouted: "This is a good thing! How many people want to serve the Dragon King but are not so lucky!"

"Yes, since Mr. Dragon King came here, my fishing has become much easier. Ask us brothers who work in the water, which time did we go into the river and not come back with a full load?"

"Hunter, just because you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist! Kneel down and kowtow to the Dragon King and confess your guilt! Otherwise, when the Dragon King arrives, he will see you being disrespectful and be careful not to eat anything!"

The emotions of these townspeople were very excited. Several hundred people gathered together and roared, as if disrespecting the Dragon King was some heinous crime.

Cai Xiangu showed a satisfied sneer when she saw this scene. She relied on the help of these believers to fool the county captain and his party. But Cai Xiangu looked at these townspeople with disdainful mockery in her eyes.

"I just asked my baby to help drive away the fish a few times and let you untouchables be grateful. You really deserve to spend the rest of your life digging for food at the bottom!"

Facing the aggressive looks of these people, Zhang Wei just raised his eyebrows, and while pressing Zheng Qiang with his sword so that he could not lift his head, he asked: "Is there really a Dragon King?"

"That's still fake, we all saw it with our own eyes!"

"The Dragon Prince's body is several hundred feet long, and our Blackwater River is big enough to fit it in!"

"Yes! It really does! I was once given a dream by his old man!"

"We testify! It really does!"

The townspeople cheered, and Cai Xiangu said with satisfaction: "Look, little brother, I didn't lie, did I? Even if you don't believe me, you still have to believe so many of us villagers, right? Put down the sword quickly, we can't see this day of sacrifice." Blood!"

After saying that, Cai Xiangu stepped forward, stretched out her fat hand and grabbed Zhang Wei's sword. However, Zhang Wei moved slightly, and the sharp sword blade directly left a mark on Zheng Qiang's neck. Bloodstains.

Zhang Luyuwei: "Really? I don't believe it."

Cai Xiangu: "..."

Zheng Qiang: "..."

Zheng Qiang really wanted to cry at this moment, thinking, you bastard, if you don't believe me, at least take the sword away from my neck!

"What do you want!" Cai Xiangu's face turned cold and she asked sternly.

Zhang Wei snorted coldly: "You want me to believe what you said is very simple. Aren't you people who serve the Dragon King? You go and call the Dragon King out and let me see it with my own eyes before I believe it."

"Nonsense! The Dragon Prince is so honorable, how can he show up so easily? Unless..." Cai Xiangu rolled her eyes and changed her tone and said, "In the name of offering a treasure, I invite the Dragon Prince to come and appraise the treasure!"

"Appraisal of treasures?" Zhang Wei looked up and looked at Cai Xiangu strangely, highlighting the clear stupidity of a fledgling person.

Cai Xiangu laughed in her heart, Tu Qiongdajian pointed at the long sword in Zhang Wei's hand and said, "I think your sword is pretty good, little brother, and it's just right for Lord Dragon to taste it! If you can win Lord Dragon's favor, maybe you can return it." What a chance!”

"What? You want my sword?!"

Zhang Wei seemed to be shocked and shook his head quickly, "No!"

"Little brother, this is boring for you. Since you want the Dragon Prince to come out to see you, but you don't want to pay the price. Are you asking me to risk offending the Dragon Prince to satisfy your curiosity?" Cai Xiangu said in an imposing manner. The human said.

"Folks, this guy wants to go see our Dragon King with nothing but nothing, do you agree?!"

"No!"

"No!"

"No!"

Cai Xiangu coaxed them together, and the townspeople quickly joined in. The voices were louder than the waves, and some even had red eyes, as if they wanted to rush up to fight Zhang Wei to defend the dignity of the Dragon Prince.

However, Zhang Wei clearly sensed that there were a few people in the crowd who were shouting very diligently and sneakily, and immediately retreated as soon as they finished shouting to stir up the atmosphere. As soon as I guessed it, I knew that it was Cai Xiangu and others who arranged for the town residents to be entrusted!

There are bad people among the masses!

Zhang Wei's expression suddenly changed, as if he had finally become too mature to withstand the condemnation of hundreds of townspeople, and retreated: "Well, I will do as you say! If the Dragon King really comes out! Not only will I not stop the sacrifice, I will also offer ten taels of gold as compensation!”

After saying that, Zhang Wei also took out a gold ingot from his pocket. The shining gold immediately caught the attention of Cai Xiangu and others, and even the voices of condemnation from the townspeople weakened. Everyone looked at Zhang Wei in surprise.

"Golden Yuanbao!"

Cai Xiangu's eyes lit up, her mung bean eyes seemed to be dyed golden by gold ingots. The greed in my heart is getting stronger and stronger.

"To be able to take out an ingot of gold ingots so calmly means that he has more in his wallet! This should be my chance, Cai Guifen!"

Cai Guifen thought to herself, then quickly took the magic sword from Zhang Wei's hand and said, "Humph, this is what you said!"

"You can come with me! Let's admire the beauty of the Dragon King together! Lest you say you can't see clearly!"

With that said, he twisted his fat body and walked towards the pier. As soon as Zhang Wei was about to follow, he turned to look at Zheng Qiang and others who had just gotten up, and asked, "Aren't you coming together?"

Zheng Qiang, who was out of danger, was about to curse when he saw this, but he heard Cai Guifen, who was walking in front, say something lightly.

"Come here too!"

Zheng Qiang and the others felt a little strange when they heard this, but they followed him obediently. However, they were frightened by Zhang Wei's force and did not dare to get too close to him. The three pampered old men just walked away timidly. At the corners, it looks very aggrieved.

Cai Guifen smiled disdainfully when she saw this, and had no intention of speaking to the three of them, because she had already sentenced them to death in her heart.

"As long as my baby comes over and eats all four of you in one go! Then your wealth is not at my disposal?"

Cai Guifen thought that she was leaving anyway, so she might as well kill all the three major families in Heishui Town at once.

Presumably the wealth of these three families who have been working hard in Blackwater Town for many years will be very rich. The sale was enough for her and her baby to go further.

At this time, Cai Guifen felt so beautiful that her baby-era voice became artificial when she called her on the dock.

"Lord Dragon, I have a treasure to offer! Please condescend to take a look!"

On the empty river, Cai Guifen's voice spread far away. The believers and townspeople all knelt down without even daring to breathe, even the three clan leaders, for fear of offending the Dragon King.

However, one breath, two breaths... ten breaths passed, and except for the sparkling light caused by the flow, there was no movement on the river.

For a moment, the scene was a little awkward.

"What's going on!"

Cold sweat slowly broke out from Cai Guifen's forehead, and her whole mood was confused.

"My baby! Where are you! Why haven't you come over yet!"

Cai Guifen, who had not seen any movement for a long time, became a little anxious and began to make spells and muttered words.

However, no matter how hard she tried, there was still no movement on the river.

Slowly, even the townspeople felt something was wrong, and some boldly raised their heads, only to see the backs of the four lonely people on the pier. Where is the figure of the Dragon King?

"Is this okay? Are you lying to me?" At this time, Zhang Wei suddenly appeared next to Cai Guifen and asked loudly.

Cai Guifen was startled, but in a confused state, she just explained incoherently: "It'll be ready soon! Lord Dragon is asleep and will be here soon!"

Having said that, no matter how Cai Guifen recited the magic formula, the monster she enshrined did not appear, and she could not even feel the spiritual power, as if she had completely left.

Beads of sweat were dripping down her face, and Cai Guifen's heart felt so cold. My heart kept shouting: "My baby! Where have you been! Come here quickly!"

Slowly, the onlookers became impatient. After all, kneeling on the ground was very tiring.

So one after another they bravely raised their heads and looked at Cai Guifen's performance with strange expressions.

The three clan leaders were even more worried, and their intuition told them that something was wrong. They almost subconsciously wanted to leave the dock.

However, at this moment, Zhang Wei suddenly said, "Fairy, it seems that your Dragon King is sleeping very soundly. How about you go down and wake him up?"

"Ah?"

Cai Guifen was stunned, and turned her head to meet Zhang Wei's cold eyes that seemed to be looking at a dead person, and her heart suddenly twitched.

At this moment, an unprecedented sense of danger surged into her heart. Almost subconsciously, she was about to pull out the magic sword in her hand.

But Zhang Wei was faster. He took a step forward and pressed the hilt of the sword that was about to be pulled out with one hand and pushed it back.

The sword directly broke away from Cai Guifen's hand, and the scabbard was inserted into the dock.

"You..."

At this time, Cai Guifen finally understood that the young man in front of her was not a passing chivalrous knight, but a well-prepared cultivator!

And he was also a cultivator with a successful cultivation!

That monster of hers...

"Forward..."

Cai Guifen was about to beg for mercy, but Zhang Wei didn't give her the chance.

He stretched out his hand and pinched Cai Guifen's shoulder, instantly crushing the part of the black loach monster power that enveloped her.

Then, without waiting for Cai Guifen to react, he raised his foot and kicked her into the river.

"Ah!"

Plop---

The townspeople only heard a pig-killing scream, and their revered Cai Xiangu was kicked into the river by Zhang Wei in a very indecent posture, and then kept floundering in the river.

Just like... can't swim?

The temple priest of the Dragon King can't swim?

"Help... Help..." Cai Guifen, who drank several mouthfuls of river water, struggled and shouted. Her body-protecting aura had been shattered by Zhang Wei, and was now suffering from the backlash, and her whole body was in pain. But she still struggled with the will to survive.

Zhang Wei stood on the dock, looking down at Cai Guifen and said quietly: "Why don't you go down and call the Dragon King? You are not sincere."

"Chief Xu, Cai Guifen can't call the Dragon King, go down and help her."

Zhang Wei suddenly turned around and said to Xu He and the other two who were sneaking away.

"Ah? No, no, no... No."

Xu He waved his hands and tried to explain, but Zhang Wei didn't give him a chance to explain, and directly grabbed his collar and threw him down.

Plop!

There was another person struggling in the river.

"Hiss, it still doesn't work, Chief Tan."

"Ah?"

Plop.

"Zheng... Come here!"

"Help... Ah!!!!"

Plop!

He threw all three insects into the water, and glared at them at the end, forcing back the servants who wanted to jump into the water to save people. Zhang Wei squatted on the dock, quietly admiring the ugly appearance of these four people.

"Help, help, I can't swim, I can't swim!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't cheat, senior, I was wrong... Gululu..."

"Young man, spare my life! Spare my life! I am willing to offer all my wealth!"

"You will die... Gululu..."

Watching the four people sink, Zhang Wei calmly threw a talisman into the river, and the twisted water flow completely destroyed the bodies of the four people.

After doing all this, Zhang Wei turned to face the townspeople of Heishui Town with complicated faces.

Papa---

Zhang Wei clapped his hands a few times, and then the townspeople heard a squeaking and twisting sound.

Looking at the sound, they saw a team of people driving a car, and the leader was the county lieutenant who came to deal with the living sacrifice in Heishui Town some time ago!

And the six children sitting on the tribute boat were even more sharp-eyed and saw their familiar relatives at the end of the team.

"Dad!"

"Mom!"

"My child!"

"My daughter! My daughter!"

Several children immediately scrambled to climb down from the boat and threw themselves into the arms of their parents. Without Cai Xiangu in charge, the townspeople and believers did not stop them, and all watched the families reunite honestly. Many people were embarrassed and lowered their heads and dared not look at the families.

"Second Master Zhang."

At this time, the county lieutenant came over and bowed to Zhang Wei, saying, "We have prepared everything you want."

"Yes."

Zhang Wei nodded, then walked to the carriage in full view of the public, lifted the cloth, and exposed the things on the carriage to everyone.

"This is their so-called Dragon King!"

The townspeople gathered around, and when they saw the things on the carriage clearly, they took a breath of cold air.

"This is..."

"Wow, what a big worm!"

"Bullshit, this is a loach! But this loach is too damn big!"

On the carriage, there was a huge loach corpse with a ragged body, which was almost as big as a python. It was obviously not an ordinary creature.

Zhang Wei explained: "This witch just learned the skills of driving strange beasts, and then she teamed up with the three major families to cheat people in Heishui Town and defraud everyone of their money! Letting you perform the live sacrifice is just to facilitate the elimination of dissidents and the encroachment of innocent people's fertile land!

I accidentally learned about their conspiracy, so I came here to expose their tricks,"

As he spoke, Zhang Wei walked towards the tribute boat and kicked over a money box. The broken silver and copper coins inside were suddenly scattered all over the floor, attracting the attention of everyone present.

"These are the people's wealth and anointing that they have plundered, and now they have returned to their original owners."

Wow! ! !

If the townspeople had some doubts about Zhang Wei before, now they have no doubts at all.

After all, they don’t take money!

For a moment, everyone was excited. They all rushed towards the tribute ship. Regardless of whether it was their own money or not, they all crazily stuffed it into their arms. For a while, there was endless shouting and cursing.

Zhang Wei left here silently and came to the side of the county captain. At this moment, the county captain was looking at the chaotic crowd with a distressed expression.

That's money!

Two thousand taels!

Even if it's broken, it's still worth two thousand taels of silver!

Sharing the white money with mud-legged people is a sin!

The county captain was very unwilling, but he had no choice. After all, the person who asked them to come over to wash the floor was the nephew of the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. If they dared to reach out, they would be impatient.

However, the county lieutenant was not depressed for long when he saw Zhang Wei coming over and whispering in his ear: "Master Song, the three major families in Heishui Town colluded with witches to hold obscene rituals and kill innocent people, and they are also looking for opportunities to make money. I don’t know how much stolen money there is!”

Song County Lieutenant's eyes lit up when he heard this, he looked away and looked at Zhang Wei, and then the two of them smiled slightly. Everything is left unsaid.

"When the time comes, use some stolen money to build a bridge for the people of Heishui Town. Let's think of these three families as atonement for the people of Heishui Town." Zhang Wei added.

"I understand!" County Lieutenant Song chuckled and had no objection to Zhang Wei's arrangement.

It's just a bridge, and it's not his money anyway. It's still a political achievement if it's done!

Spending other people's money to do your own thing is the most satisfying thing!

"The Xu family, the Tan family, and the Zheng family have committed such an act that is outraged by both humans and gods in order to bring disaster to the village. The crime cannot be punished! The second and third sons will go with me to Heishui Town to restore peace to the people!"

Song County Lieutenant Dayi said calmly, like a good official who truly served the people, and then led the county government servants and a group of people like tigers and wolves into Heishui Town and went straight to the houses of the three major families.

"Benefactor!"

At this time, the parents of six children came over with their frightened children, and without saying a word, they knelt down towards Zhang Wei.

"Quickly, kowtow to your benefactor!"

"If it weren't for him, you baby would have become fish food today!"

"Kowtow to your benefactor!"

"My benefactor, please accept my homage!"

Zhang Wei quickly helped these people up and advised: "Take this money, sell your belongings in Heishui Town, and then leave here, go to Luyang City or anywhere else. Heishui Town is no longer there. It’s suitable for you to continue to stay.”

Zhang Wei said, looking at the townspeople who were still fighting for money, his meaning was self-evident.

These families also understand the pros and cons, but they understand it. How many people can make up their mind to leave is another matter.

After all, in this era, it is still very difficult to leave Blackwater Town and live in a strange place.

But Zhang Wei had no intention of continuing to help.

Although as the saying goes, help people to the end and send Buddha to the West. But Zhang Wei is more worried about the promotion of rice and the hatred of rice. What if these people think that their kindness depends on them?

Having said that, it is none of his business what the other party does!

Zhang Wei whistled, and the horse he brought immediately ran towards him, then got up and mounted.

At this time, these families belatedly thanked Zhang Wei and said, "Thank you so much, my benefactor! Thank you so much, my benefactor!"

"Dare you ask your benefactor's name! We will set up a shrine for you and worship you every day!"

Zhang Wei galloped wildly, leaving only his voice in the air.

"Zhang family of Luyang, Zhang Wei and Zhang Zijie!"
