Chapter 646: The Wasteland Merchant (I) Three Watches
In the evening of the next day, everyone in Yunmen Village rushed to Tinglei City.
When that huge city appeared in front of their eyes, the old village chief and Xiao Jiu'er and other villagers were like dreams. When the army of Listening to Lei Cheng arrived at Yunmen Village last night, the whole village was in a panic, I don't know where I offended Listening to Lei Cheng, and I actually went on an expedition, which was to destroy the small village.
But after hearing that the army of Lei Cheng was very polite to them, and was extremely respectful to the old village chief, and explained their intentions, the villagers' first reaction was: impossible!
But with the strength of Lei Cheng, if you want to achieve anything, you can directly threaten with force, and you don't have to go through such a big deal at all.
They came in half-belief, and along the way, they heard the army of Thunder City treat them with respect, and they gradually became convinced.
At this time, standing under Tinglei City, more than half of them had never been here in their lives, and they were thrilled to see the real city for the first time.
When the old village chief saw his daughter standing at the head of the city waiting to greet him, he sighed for a while, he didn't expect that noble man to reach such a height in such a short period of time.
And Yunmen Village is actually deeply favored by him, he doesn't owe anything to Yunmen Village, but he still thinks about Yunmen Village.
Yalian flew down, startling the old village chief and shouting, such a high city wall, with Yalian's strength, jumping down like this will be seriously injured.
Boom!
Yalian fell heavily outside the city, and a piece of dust flew up, but she stood up unharmed, thinking of her relatives and running over.
She hugged her mother vigorously, but the old village chief could feel that his daughter was not happy. She wondered in her heart, but now she didn't ask about it from time to time.
The leader of the army stepped forward: "Your Excellency, the city lord is waiting for you. β
The old village chief nodded: "Please lead the way." She took her daughter's hand and walked into Tinglei City together.
Along the way, she heard that Lei Cheng was not as she imagined, it had just experienced a change of power, a big war, and left traces of war everywhere. It's very peaceful, the houses are not damaged, not even the merchants are closed, it is bustling and everything is business as usual.
She was amazed in her heart, and was taken outside the city lord's mansion, and someone led her in after the ceremony. But when she got here, her daughter refused to go: "Mother, go see him by yourself, I'll go back and play with Xiao Jiu'er and them." β
She took away her mother's hand, turned and walked away.
The old village chief had some guesses in his heart, and his face was a little gloomy. She is the village chief and a mother.
Song Zheng was still sitting in the position of the city lord, and the old village chief was about to come forward to pay a visit, but Song Zheng had already smiled and said: "Seniors don't need to be like this, we are old people." β
But the old village chief still bowed, got up and said with a cold face: "The old man doesn't dare to be an old man, the noble man has brought us, please tell me something." β
Song Zheng frowned: "Why are seniors like this?"
The old village chief was very straightforward: "You bullied my daughter!"
Song Zheng was dumbfounded and aggrieved: "No, I ...... it."
The old village chief saw that he didn't seem to be a fake, and probably understood the reason, so he sighed secretly This stupid girl, so he had to bow down and say, "That's it, you can solve your own affairs."
The old body actually understands why the noble man called us, but ...... Although the old body is grateful, he is also worried. β
Song Zheng was silent.
The old village chief continued: "The nobleman has lifted us up, but he has also seen us involved in a great strife. This level of battle is too terrifying for our Yunmen Village, and if there is a slight fluctuation, our entire Yunmen Village will be shattered......"
Song Zheng had long thought about the old village chief's worries, if it was a normal situation, she would find everyone in Yunmen Village at this time, not a fortune but a disaster.
Listening to Lei Cheng thinking that it is too powerful for Yunmen Village, the people of Yunmen Village participated in the battle between Song Zheng and Listening to Lei City, and it was indeed the end of death without a place to bury if they were not careful.
The old village chief said his worries very bluntly, and seemed to be a little "ignorant of lifting", but this also just shows that she is wise and old-fashioned, and she is not desperate because of the wealth in front of her, and she will also think about the future of the entire village.
Such a person is worthy of entrusting himself to the rear of Lei City.
So he smiled slightly, walked down and said, "What the seniors worried about will not happen. Listen to Thunder City will not have any force against me. β
The old village chief couldn't help frowning, Song Zheng knew that he would not believe it if he said this, so he waved his hand and said, "Senior may wish to go and talk to Yalian, she will tell you the reason." β
The old village chief bowed down and retreated, but Song Zheng called out to her: "When some things were in Yunmen Village, it was inconvenient to give them to you, but now it is just right, please accept them." β
He took out four Chaos Heavenly Demon Treasure Bones: "The largest one is for the seniors, and the other three are for the seniors to choose the right people to give them." β
When the old village chief took it, he was trembling, and almost fell to the ground, so he hurriedly held it carefully, and looked at Song Zheng suspiciously: "What does the noble man mean?"
"Go ahead, go talk to Yalian, the seniors will understand. Song Zheng didn't explain much.
The old village chief thought for a while, this time he didn't refuse, he put away the four treasure bones and came out, and before she figured it out, she wouldn't devour these treasure bones.
After more than half an hour, she understood Song Zheng's intentions after talking to Yalian. But she was even more puzzled in her heart: he was about to travel far away, and this was to entrust Tinglei City to us?
But hearing that Thunder City has such a huge industry, we are just meeting in Pingshui, so he is so relieved?
At the same time as this question was raised, she also solved the puzzle at the same time, and laughed dumbly: how could he worry, he could cover the sky with one hand, and he could fight against a city by himself. It's that we really have that mind, and we don't have that strength, as long as he comes back, I listen to Lei Cheng is still his.
During the conversation with her daughter just now, she probably understood why her daughter was depressed.
There is nothing the old man can do about this kind of thing, if the two are happy, of course she is happy to see it. Song Zheng is not only strong, but also has an excellent character, he is indeed a good candidate for life, and his daughter is not young.
But if people don't want to, can they force it?
She went to see Song Zheng again and accepted the other party's kindness.
Song Zheng nodded, listening to Lei Cheng's affairs, it was finally arranged.
After he leaves, the power of Ting Lei City will be divided into three parts, the most powerful is of course the old village chief, she is the deputy city lord appointed by Song Zheng, leading the city's defenders and hunting teams of a total of 3,000 people, responsible for daily security and hunting.
Then there is the Great Supervisor, who is still in charge of the Vital Weapon Refinery, but now the guard force of the Divine Artifact Refinery has increased to 800 people, and it is also under the command of the Great Supervisor.
Finally, there is the young eunuch, who was appointed by Song Zheng as the chief of the city lord's mansion, and he also has an armed force in his hand, which is the city lord's guard, a total of five hundred people. He was mainly responsible for the affairs of the city.
Song Zheng taught them the two refining secret texts separately, and asked them not to teach each other, so the confrontation between the two was determined.
In addition, at the beginning, when the young eunuch was apprenticed, he would not cooperate with the big supervisor.
And the chief eunuch and the young eunuch are the natives of Tinglei City, and the people of Yunmen Village from outside are naturally opposed, and the three largest forces in the city cannot cooperate with each other to maintain a balance.
Song Zheng stayed for three more days, and during these three days, the old village chief devoured that piece of Chaos Heavenly Demon Treasure Bone, and his strength increased greatly, and he had surpassed the original Ji Gulian and became the first person under Song Zheng in Listening to Thunder City.
The other three smaller treasure bones, she chose to give them to the three of them, and the overall combat power of Yunmen Village was greatly increased, and it had the ability to initially deter and control the army in the city.
In the following time, the old village chief can continue to use the resources in the city, and the strength of the people in Yunmen Village will continue to improve steadily.
Three days later, Song Zheng quietly left.
......
Song Zheng was embarrassed, it had been two days since he left to listen to Thunder City, and then he found that he seemed to be ...... Lost.
Before leaving, the chief eunuch earnestly persuaded the new city lord to take him with him, because he had been to the Ice Drinking City and knew the way. But Song Zheng wanted to leave him in control of Tinglei City, so he only needed a map.
Both the Great Supervisor and the Young Supervisor advised him that the map was unreliable in the Broken Wasteland, but Lord Song was very confident and set off with the map.
Now he realized that he should follow the advice.
In the wasteland, maps are indeed the least reliable things.
Everything that can be used as a landmark may disappear at some point.
He turned around, and could only determine a general direction, and it was estimated that he would not go further and further...... Right?
In a deep ditch beside him, there was a faint roar of a wild beast, and he was about to extinguish it, when suddenly his ears moved, and he heard a sound from a distance.
The clanging of metal, it was a caravan traveling from afar, riding a large number of life weapons.
He had wanted to ask for directions to this kind of caravan before, but in the wasteland, everyone was extremely vigilant, and those cruel robbers often used excuses such as asking for directions and buying water to approach the caravan, and then burst out to kill people and rob expensive goods.
So before he got close, the other party was very vigilant, and even wanted to attack first.
This time, Song Zheng decided to change his routine.
He gently pushed his hand, pressed the wild beast in the ditch in the air, and waited quietly. When the caravan came into sight, he let go of his restraints, and the beast leaped out and rushed towards Song Zheng with a roar.
Song Zheng fought and fledβin the direction of the caravan, expecting to be rescued, and then asked for directions.
Unexpectedly, the caravan was very cold-blooded, and when they saw the desolate beast chasing and killing pedestrians, they immediately accelerated, and their weapons ran wildly, and they ran away without waiting for Song Zheng to get close!
Song Zheng secretly scolded for his bad luck, and solved the desolate beast casually, seeing that it was getting late, he didn't leave, and raised a bonfire on the spot, roasted the desolate beast and prepared to eat it.
Night gradually fell, the sky was dark, and in the firelight, a figure suddenly appeared in the distance and walked slowly.
