Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World
Chapter 129 Why does it feel like it’s me who’s scolding you?
[In the distant and rough sea, you can find an altar standing high on the sea. On the altar, there is a bell that cannot ring. I need to get there, ring the dumb bell, and the wisest race in the angry sea will come to meet me. 】
[The problem now is that the city-state has been surrounded by biological remnants. We need to pass through countless warstrikes and Styx elves to reach the port where the situation is unknown. 】
[Official said: Explorer, now we can no longer pay you. But when you return from completing your mission, the human city-state will grant you the title of brave and remember your feat forever. 】
Although there is no substantial reward, Zhao Chuanxin vaguely feels that the reputation behind these titles will bring him more benefits.
After the weirdo gave him the title of explorer, now officials from the Ministry of Defense also look up to him.
When he becomes a "brave", he may be able to accept more cost-effective tasks.
After thinking for a moment, he chose to agree.
[Officials dispatched a suicide squad to assist me and several sailors on board the ship. First, we have to break out. 】
[On the high walls of the city-state, soldiers defended themselves with flintlock guns and swords, and the monster troops of the remnants of creatures rose up one after another like a raging tide. 】
[I saw a man wearing ghost armor, leaping easily from the back of the war scar on the city, and climbed onto the city wall in a short time. 】
[He was carrying five Styx elves on his back, and now he put them down. The petite Styx elves shuttled through the crowd as fast as lightning, injuring more than twenty city-state guards in a moment. 】
[A gap appeared on the city wall, and a war creature jumped up. 】
[In desperation, I fired an arrow-shaped lightning bolt at him, successfully knocking it back and falling off the city wall. The guards who reacted rushed forward and blocked the gap. 】
[The official said to me: They will also get tired. Once they block this wave of attacks, it will be your time to break out. 】
[The death squads are ready, we are going to break out. 】
[The city gate opened a gap and we rushed out. 】
[We are like a sampan in the rough sea, tenacious but not strong enough to resist the invasion. A Styx elf passed through the defense line of the death squads and ran towards us. 】
[I immediately killed it with two shots from my pistol. 】
[Then more and more Styx elves broke through the defense line, and the death squads and sailors suffered heavy casualties. My gun was out of ammunition, so I took out the spider legs and activated the separated long-range attack mode, sweeping back and forth at a height close to the ground. This was a good way to deal with this short and tenacious creature. 】
[But the good times didn't last long. A War Creation knocked away three suicide squad members with one claw and rushed towards us. Behind me, the War Creation mount that I had conquered rushed up and fought with it. 】
[The weirdo made a light armor for my mount to strengthen its already strong defense. A meteor hammer was also installed on the tip of its tail. When it swung its tail, it inflicted internal injuries on the other war creature. 】
[Finally, we broke out of the siege. The soldiers of the death squads smiled sadly and turned around to say take care of us. Then they used their lives to buy the time for the few of us to rush to the port, and used their flesh and blood to temporarily block the pursuers behind. . 】
[A ship was docked at the port that was originally used by the city-state nobles to escape. The sails were fully loaded and the supplies were sufficient. After we got on board, we immediately weighed the anchor. 】
[The pursuers have arrived, and they rush forward one after another, even jumping into the sea and swimming to catch up. 】
[I changed the ammunition and shot into the sea water, killing the Styx elves who were trying to climb up. The sea water was filled with blood, and soon there were big fish coming to compete for the delicious food that was brought to the mouth. 】
[Finally, we are out of danger. 】
[After not walking far along the coastline, we veered eastward. We are about to enter the turbulent and violent sea. This will be a long voyage. 】
[Due to the shortage of manpower on the ship, I also have to follow the instructions of the temporary captain. 】
For several days, Zhao Chuanxin spent his time reading diaries, conserving energy, and wandering around.
The whole Lugang Town was busy, and he was the only idler.
The weather has been good in the past two years, and the black soil is fertile enough. Chemical products such as fertilizers and pesticides are currently not available. Zhao Chuanxin can only lend some horses other than military horses to farmers for reclamation.
The newly cultivated fields are registered with the public security office, but they do not go to the government, so the yamen cannot collect taxes.
The land tax in the Qing Dynasty was considered low, but the government offices had other means of raising money.
But in Lugang Town, the county magistrate couldn't make a penny, so he was naturally very resentful and sent many reports to the magistrate Zhu Zhaokui.
Zhu Zhaokui was annoyed after seeing so much, so he sought out General Jilin again for discussion.
The current General of Jilin, Da Gui, is nothing but a man of character. I have long heard that Lugang Town is a thorn in the side and is not easy to deal with, but the new officer has three things to do when he takes office.
So, he thought of a self-righteous trick.
He sent people to Lugang Town to "recruit peace".
"Zhuan Xin, someone from the General's Office is here." Zhang Daquan ran to Zhao Chuanxin's home.
"Come just come, you can entertain me."
"No, this time he said he wants to recruit us as officials."
After all, the Qing government is still an official, and Zhang Daquan's excited face can actually represent the psychology of the Lugang Town insurance team.
They are not afraid if the yamen comes to attack them, but they will be very excited if the yamen comes to recruit them.
Many gangsters in the three northeastern provinces have this mentality. In the future, bandits in Hebei and other places would rob and kidnap for no money, just to recruit people.
When you become an official, you have power and wealth, not to mention making money.
Followed Zhang Daquan to the police station.
The person coming is Chengxun, the deputy capital of Jilin. This position is second only to the general of Jilin, which is already very high.
When Zhao Chuanxin arrived, he was looking at the wall of the security station.
There is a row of photos hanging on the wall, and under the photos is a small text introduction.
Liu Jiahui, born in 1883 (the ninth year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu), female, is currently a police officer at the Lugang Town Public Security Station.
Du Chengan, born in 1878 (the fourth year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu), male, is currently the police chief of the Lugang Town Public Security Station.
……
Including the police chief, there were ten people in total.
These days, there are no administrative agencies where it is fashionable to hang photos and text explanations.
There is also a weapons depot in the Civilian Police Department of the Public Security Station. Through the lattice glass door, Chengxun can see a gun rack painted with varnish. It is full of guns and ammunition. There are thirteen guns, eight guns, five guns, arranged in categories. . Next to it are various types of ammunition.
The floors and walls were made of smooth wood, and a map hung on the wall.
There is also an archives room, which is full of files.
Chengxun felt very strange. Although this place is not as luxurious as the yamen door, it is more refined. With the glass windows that allow all the sunlight to shine in, people working here must be in a good mood.
When Zhao Chuanxin came, he saw Chengxun observing the environment.
"Ah, the Vice-Capital Commander is here to bring you glory."
Chengxun raised his head defiantly and hummed softly in reply.
"Are you Zhao Chuanxin?"
"That's right, it's me."
"Haha, I heard that Lugang Town is lawless, setting up private courts, jointly resisting taxes, and even has evil intentions. Is this true?"
Zhao Chuanxin's eyes widened: "Ah, what kind of bastard is spreading rumors about this?"
Chengxun: "..."
Why do you feel like it's me you're scolding?
