Mortal Mirror

#160 - Chapter 160: The problem is not the scarcity, but the inequality

Li Ergou was seeing a chicken king fight for the first time, and he really didn't expect the chicken king's strength to be so terrifying. At this moment, he saw the chicken king colliding with the wild boar, its wings stirring up sand and gravel that blinded the zombie wild boar.

And it used this force to leap up, its sharp claws actually grabbing the wild boar's head, and with a sudden force, its powerful strength directly crushed the wild boar's head.

Li Ergou was dumbfounded, not expecting the chicken king's combat power to be so powerful. Perhaps 'too terrifying' was the only way to describe it. He sighed inwardly, not knowing what to say.

The chicken king glanced at the wild boar's corpse with a contemptuous look, and ran back to Li Ergou with its head held high and its chest out, looking very proud and imposing.

It looked at Li Ergou, its eyes actually carrying a hint of longing, as if waiting for Li Ergou's approval.

Li Ergou smiled wryly and said, "Good, well done, Chicken King, you're the best."

The chicken king seemed to understand Li Ergou's words, and immediately clucked happily, jumping around in the yard with great joy.

Looking at the chicken king's happy appearance, Li Ergou was thoughtful. He still had a mountain of debt on his back, but the way to make money had come. However, his own lethality was limited. With so many powerful fighters in his family, shouldn't they all fight alongside him to pay off the debt?

These guys eat and drink well every day, but don't contribute much to the family. Now the opportunity to train them has come, and it won't come again if missed.

Most importantly, he had eggs that could detoxify and heal injuries. If it really didn't work, he could use tortoise jelly. As long as they weren't killed instantly, he could save them all. With them fighting, wouldn't he be able to pay off the debt quickly?

The more he thought about it, the more reliable it seemed, so he consulted the guys' opinions. Unexpectedly, after hearing it, the guys were very excited, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Li Ergou was happy in his heart, thinking that it was great, he hadn't raised them for nothing, and the time to get his money back had come.

But unexpectedly, Meier said, "Young Master, can Meier also participate in the battle? Although Meier's martial power is not good, she can still use magic to attack from a distance. At critical times, I can also be of some use."

Since Meier requested it, Li Ergou naturally didn't refuse. Killing a white-haired zombie was worth eleven taels of silver. If Meier could sneak attack a few a day, it would be great. Li Ergou only felt that his abacus beads were about to be smashed.

He instructed the guys and went back to the house to sleep. He was really too tired that day.

The next morning, Li Ergou put on his Black Scale Armor, rode his Moon Rabbit Horse, and set off with Black Cat, Chicken King, Black Beard, and Meier. Fortunately, there were still three generations of chickens guarding the house, so there was no problem with zombies and beasts that weren't too powerful.

Leaving Bitter Mountain Courtyard, he went straight to the yamen. The county constable had promised to get him ten sets of weapons yesterday, and he was thinking about preventing others from taking them first. When he arrived at the armory, luckily, there were still more than a dozen sets in the warehouse. After he领完, there were only three sets left, but that was none of his business.

Finding a deserted place to copy them, he hurried to the yamen. Arriving here, he saw that his subordinates had basically arrived.

Everyone was shocked to see the guys Li Ergou brought, not expecting Li Ergou to be so desperate, bringing his pets to kill the enemy. It seemed that the rumor that the boss had a mountain of debt was true.

Li Ergou naturally didn't know what everyone was thinking. He looked at the crowd and thought about how to distribute the armor properly.

Now he had a total of twenty-five subordinates. Zhou Da and others already had Black Scale Armor. At this moment, Li Ergou took out ten sets of armor and distributed them to those who hadn't received armor. Even so, it was still not enough.

And this kind of thing, of course, should be allocated according to seniority and combat power. As the saying goes, it's not poverty but inequality that should be worried about. If you don't do it fairly, it's not impossible for your subordinates to stab you in the back.

Fair and just distribution, so that no one has anything to say, right? Even if they are not assigned, they will only feel a little uncomfortable, but there will be no other emotions.

Soon, Li Ergou distributed the armor, and those who received the armor were naturally grateful and thankful.

Those who were not assigned were naturally in a low mood, but they saw that Li Ergou didn't distribute it blindly, especially not taking care of the young people in Wanglong Village, and everyone felt much better.

The young people in Wanglong Village all looked envious, after all, everyone knew the benefits of this armor, especially the Cold Finch Saber, which was extremely sharp and even more rare.

But they knew even more that everything had to listen to Li Ergou. If he didn't give it to them, they had to hold back, but they all secretly contained a breath in their hearts, they must make contributions, they must work hard, and become stronger, so that Li Ergou would have face, and they would also have glory on their faces.

Li Ergou seemed to see through everyone's minds, and couldn't help thinking, you stinky boys, you are lucky, that is, I have a heaven-defying bronze mirror that can copy enough armor, but I can't give it to them so easily.

He would not do things that would suffer losses. Li Ergou thought about it, and had a very good idea in his mind.

He looked at the boys in Wanglong Village, his face became serious and said: "I think everyone knew yesterday that these ten sets of armor were specially approved by the county constable and belonged to the yamen. You are all extra personnel, temporary constables, and are not qualified to be assigned. I can't be selfish, otherwise, my captain will be unfair and unable to convince the public."

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded, feeling that Li Ergou was too fair, especially those who were issued the armor, this was a life-saving thing, everyone was grateful in their hearts, feeling that they had followed the right person, and their faces were full of pride.

Li Ergou changed his tone and continued: "However, everyone should not be discouraged. I, Li Ergou, have no other skills, but I still have a few friends. This is not yesterday, I asked grandpa to sue grandma everywhere, and pulled a mountain of debt again. Finally, God will not fail those who are destined, some brothers got me twenty sets of customized armor, to be honest, for the brothers, I also拼了."

Speaking, he waved his hand, and took out the copied twenty sets of armor again, and put them on the ground. Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw these armors, and didn't know what to say.

Li Ergou couldn't help but said: "What else are you looking at, everyone has a set, Meier, you also take a set for self-defense."

As soon as these words came out, everyone came back to their senses and picked up the Black Scale Armor and Cold Finch Saber on the ground. With the armor and waist knife, everyone felt more energetic.

Holding weapons, everyone was so excited that they didn't know what to say. The boys in Wanglong Village held back for a long time before saying: "Brother Gou, nothing else, your debt is our debt, don't worry, we will definitely not embarrass you."

To be honest, at this moment, the boys in Wanglong Village had completely surrendered to Li Ergou in their hearts, the kind that was wholeheartedly.

Li Ergou was very comfortable in his heart when he heard this. No matter what, losses can be suffered, but the less the better, right? Now that he has completely subdued these guys, and can let them help him pay off the debt, it's just beautiful in his heart.

At this time, he naturally had to say something, so he said: "Okay, everyone is good brothers, share blessings together, and share difficulties together, everyone will work hard to kill corpses and protect Kushui County."

Li Ergou shouted, and everyone immediately followed and shouted. For a time, countless passers-by looked here, sighing in their hearts, and they all prayed for them, hoping that they could return safely.

Li Ergou stopped talking nonsense, and led everyone on horseback to go out of the city, but before he started, he saw a few people running from not far away, shouting at him frantically.
