number one leader

Chapter 246 Bingzhou City Prefecture

A few days later, the two horses left the territory of Naqin City Mansion without any haste.

There was the sound of spiritual hooves, and Chu Sheng was frowning and talking with Yan Bufan about what he had just heard. After the matter of the Li family's dark marriage was resolved, although the first and last matters had been settled on the spot, the two still delayed for a while.Except for Chu Sheng's meticulous arrangements, the rest of the result is his package hanging on the back of the spirit horse. Looking at the shape wrapped by inertia, it is clearly a square wooden box.

But in the wooden box, there was a human head with wide-eyed eyes.

Chu Sheng, who never spoke nonsense, said that he wanted to take Xuanzi's head first to pay homage to his deceased father, so he took the pains to cut off Xuanzi's head, and searched for some embalming treatment in the city.

As for the headless body, he even threw it directly into a mass grave outside the city, where it was eaten by wild dogs.

This method is not cruel. Chu Sheng completely ignored Lao Shizi's death.

From this aspect, he is inevitably a bit extreme and does not follow the right path.However, Yan Bufan was not that pedantic old man, so he could understand his mood. Although he looked a little uncomfortable in his eyes, he did not show it on his face, and he still promised to go to Bingzhou City with Chu Sheng.

They were not in a hurry all the way, and Chu Sheng even traveled while surveying the surrounding customs and customs, and had a better understanding of the land of Bingzhou.

If there is really any gain, it is to have a deeper understanding of the hardships of the people of Bingzhou.Most of the people in the city are from wealthy families, so apart from the bustling city, it is hard to feel the hardships of the people. Just leaving the bustling area and walking on the dry and cracked land, the scorching sun is above your head, and wherever you look, They are all withered and yellow crops, and what I hear in my ears is the long sighs of farmers, which really touches the inside.

Yan Bufan didn't urge him either. In fact, he was extremely fresh and surprised by Chu Sheng's actions.

For a pure Jianghu person like him, he may occasionally sigh that people's livelihood is difficult, but most of them forget it when they look back, and often don't take it to heart.But following Chu Sheng's experience, it was engraved in his heart even more deeply, and it also gave him a deeper understanding of the handsome young man in front of him.

Although he is in Jianghu, he is different from Jianghu people.

"This year's harvest in Bingzhou must be weak, and it will be a difficult year." Chu Sheng recalled what he saw and heard when he passed the fields, and he couldn't help sighing, his brows were frowned, and his expression was not relaxed.

"There are only a few seedlings in the fields, but the tyranny behind it is as fierce as a tiger. The people are always on the verge of living a hard life, and they often listen to God's judgment when they are hungry and full. However, in the past two years, the weather has not always been good. The rainstorm in spring, the heat in summer, the crops If they can't live, they will make the people more difficult. But the gentlemen above them go in and out of the rich families, and they drink and eat all the delicacies. They don't know farming, and they don't want to look around in the fields. Let’s go, tax burdens and miscellaneous donations are falling in various forms in turn, which is forcing the people to live.”

Yan Bufan's heart was also heavy, he couldn't help but look back, the fields between the plains were no longer visible, but the scene of those old farmers bending over and beating their backs was always in his mind.

"Zisheng can always see things that we have never seen, and what he thinks in his heart is not limited to one river and lake. Compared with you, Brother Yu is really ashamed."

Chu Sheng has not reached the crown, and has never had a crown, so people who are close to each other call each other, and add the word "zi" to show their closeness. This is the custom of this world.

"I can only express one or two feelings, what is worthy of Brother Yan's praise?"

"Those big rats don't even have any emotion, they only care about the hats on their heads and the amount of money for food and clothing." Yan Bufan sneered, and sarcastically said: "Brother Yu always looks down on those Confucian scholars, There is a gorgeous long sword hanging on his waist for no reason, but he doesn't even have the strength to draw it out. But when he is in a high position, his eyes are higher than the top, and he is unwilling to turn his pearls down even a little. They have read the sages for so many years Books, but becoming more and more depraved and greedy, it's ridiculous."

This guy. The first half of the sentence shouldn't be ridiculing that Liu Qi.

Chu Sheng slandered a little bit in his heart, Liu Qi never pulled out the sword at his waist, and it was hard to let go of the place where the fireworks were lingering. These so-called anecdotes have long been known to the world.

"Sages can't be taught by sages." Yan Bufan sighed again, suddenly thought of something, and said, "Zisheng also has a smell of books, but he's different from those people who talk grandly, but secretly prostitutes and thieves."

Chu Sheng couldn't help but laugh, "I have read some poetry books and wasted some years, but after going round and round, I still found that those twists and turns were not what I wanted, so I finally joined the world and became a free and easy person. I'm just an idler, I don't want to hold great power and be in a high position, I just want to live up to my father's wishes and maintain the Longshou Sect."

"There's nothing wrong with being a quack, and it's not good if you don't read. Like Zisheng, you just need to read just right." Yan Bufan agreed: "If you read a lot, your heart will slowly deteriorate."

Chu Sheng really didn't know how to answer this nonsense.

However, Yan Bufan probably couldn't have imagined that someone from Chu gave up literature and went to martial arts, the reason is actually very simple, he has not passed the foreign examination.
Along the way, Chu Sheng mostly talked about this matter with Yan Bufan. In terms of martial arts, knowledge, and martial arts experience, Chu Sheng was not as good as this world-famous hero, so he naturally chose to bring him into his own realm. In the end, the strategy really took effect, and Yan Bufan had a good impression of him in words, and when he entered the city of Bingzhou, he had already introduced Chu Sheng as a friend.

The first town to enter the city of Bingzhou is called Platform Town.

After all, it is the capital of a state. Although the disaster in Bingzhou is getting worse, this town can be regarded as a bit of style, and there are constant business people.

After traveling for a long time, it is natural to stay in an inn to rest from the wind and dust. The two of them led the horse through the busy market and went to the inn to find something else.

For example, Sanjijiao.

The young leader of the Sanji Sect is really talented. He has extraordinary means. While trying to win over the high-end force in the world, he also dispatches missionaries. His footprints are all over towns and villages in a state, and he adopts the method of encircling the city from the countryside. Attract a large number of ignorant people to join the religion, and carry public opinion and intentions to great effect.

However, the government has enough silver taels, so they don't care about it.

As Chu Sheng and Yan Bufan saw, there were a few missionaries in this busy market preaching doctrines, performing some double reeds to show miracles, and giving a small amount of money to win people's hearts.Using these three methods together, a large group of people gathered to watch, and listened to the missionary's nonsense, talking about "three foundations and three calamities", which made the people startled and followed the missionary's heart Every word and every word goes up and down.

The two stopped for a while, Yan Bufan sneered and shook his head, "It's all about tricks, and what you say is just about those things."

"It doesn't matter whether his methods are rough or whether his words are careful, it is enough that he can make the people believe him." The fear in Chu Sheng's eyes could not be concealed at all.

"The path taken by this sect is really different from the ghost caves in Sichuan, corpse gods in central Hunan, and five poisons in the southern border."

Yan Bufan said: "Let's go, stay overnight, and then come and find out the details of these people."

Chu Sheng had no objection, and the two casually walked into an inn, and after some trivial matters, they decided to make a decision. Instead, they drank tea in the hall and waited for the dishes to be served.

Zeng and "White Rod" Hong Xuan walked darts, so Chu Sheng absorbed his Jianghu experience, so he was more cautious when walking in the Jianghu. He instinctively shifted his eyes to look at the diners around him, and suddenly frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: " Those who are going downstairs don't seem to be kind."

Yan Bufan didn't look up, but just took a sip of the tea, and responded: "It's some little bastards from the evil way, but I don't know why they are gathered here, let's put it down and ignore it."
