Chapter 3269 The road sees injustice
Around noon, on the official road near the Chu River Pier, there was the sound of a galloping windmill, several gusts of wind were seen passing by, and several horses and carriages were parked beside the pier.
Several people got off their horses, including two, one of whom had a tall head, his bald head shining brightly in the midday sun.
The other man is dressed as a Confucian scholar, has a mustache, is thin and of medium height, and has shining eyes.
"Brother Luo, this is the Chu River Pier. The people from Zhou Chu Town haven't arrived yet."
The bald man who spoke was the mayor of Bachu Town, Qiao Daqian.
As for the Confucian man, he was the cultivator he had just fawned over recently.
Qiao Daqian is a very hypocritical and cunning person. In the early years, before Lingmi was planted, when the Ye family was at its peak in Daxia, Qiao Daqian and Mayor Zhao had always been brothers, hoping that they could take advantage of Mayor Zhao's reputation.
Fawn over the Ye family.
But since Gu Yuehai took full control of the human world, the imperial power of Daxia withered, and the Ye family was also affected.
Qiao Daqian immediately turned his face. Since Bachu Town had also obtained the opportunity to plant spiritual millet, he took advantage of this opportunity to plant some spiritual millet privately and secretly curry favor with the sects on the mainland.
Relying on the support of cultivators behind him, he has been secretly suppressing Zhou Chu Town, and even wanted to take advantage of this year's Lingsu tax to eliminate Mayor Zhao, which is why he cut off the river.
"It's already past noon. I'm afraid the other party is too frightened to come."
The cultivator named Luo stroked his beard with a look of disdain on his face.
No wonder the cultivator surnamed Luo is so arrogant. He was not born in an ordinary small sect. He was from Sansheng Valley.
At the beginning, Sansheng Valley was also the largest sect on the mainland after Guyuehai, Nanwushan and Yaochi Xianxie.
Hong Mingyue framed Luo Song. After Luo Sansheng lost his beloved son, he had to re-promote disciples in the sect. This cultivator named Luo, named Luo Qing, was a distant cousin of Luo Sansheng.
Taking that opportunity, he became Luo Sansheng's direct disciple.
After Qin Xiaochuan took control of the human world, he could not control the countries and forces of the human world at once with the manpower of Gu Yuehai, so Qin Xiaochuan used various sects as puppets and ordered them to monitor various countries.
Luo Sansheng and Headmaster Wuya were of the same generation. He also realized that Guyuehai in ancient and modern times was no longer the same Guyuehai as before. He was unwilling to be manipulated by Guyuehai, so he simply used seclusion as an excuse to seize the sect.
Everything was left to Luo Qing to take care of.
After Luo Qing gained real power, he became even more arrogant.
Luo Qing was originally from Bachu Town, and before he got rich, the two of them often colluded together, doing things like male theft and female prostitution.
This time Luo Qing took power. After Qiao Daqian got the news, he quickly packed up a batch of spirit millet and several beautiful women and went to curry favor with them.
Qiao Daqian told Luo Qing about the conflict between himself and Zhou Chuzhen. Luo Qing took several disciples to Bachu Town without saying anything.
Luo Qing ordered his men to cut off the river.
"You're right. I've long been unhappy with Zhou Chu's group. They were relying on the Ye family's connections. Now that the Ye family is not as good as before, I want to see how they are going to fight us."
Qiao Daqian and Luo Qing looked at each other, and both laughed loudly.
On the official road, there was another burst of dust, but Mayor Zhao was seen riding fast with a few people.
With a grunt, Mayor Zhao got off his horse with a livid face.
"Brother Zhao, you are fine."
Seeing Mayor Zhao, Qiao Daqian laughed.
"Qiao Daqian, don't pretend to be compassionate. You must give me an explanation about the source of the Chu River."
As Mayor Zhao traveled along the way, he saw that there were a large number of withered millet fields near the Chu River.
If this continues, Zhou Chu's harvest this year will be reduced by at least 20-30%. What will he use to offset the 20-30%?
If the spirit grains are not handed over, the entire people of Zhouchu Town will be implicated. Thinking of this, Mayor Zhao's heart feels heavy.
He also ordered people to check the blocked rivers, but he didn't know what methods Qiao Daqian used. No matter how he cleaned up those river sections, he couldn't dredge them. The water quality in that area was also polluted, making it impossible to irrigate.
"An explanation? What explanation? In Daxia, power and strength are all means of explanation. If you want to clear the way, then you have to hand over half of Zhou Chu's spiritual millet."
Qiao Daqian took advantage of Luo Qing's presence and began to talk nonsense.
"Fart, Qiao Daqian, do you really think that we, Zhou Chu, are afraid that you, Bachu, will not be able to suppress us?"
When Mayor Zhao heard this, his eyes almost burst into anger.
"Brother Zhao, don't talk too much. Do you really think Zhou Chu today is still Zhou Chu back then? I'll introduce you to someone first, and it won't be too late for you to get angry again."
After Qiao Daqian said this, he became impatient and invited Luo Qing beside him.
"This is Master Luo Qingluo, the acting head of Sansheng Valley."
Qiao Daqian's brows were filled with pride.
When they heard the name of Sansheng Valley, everyone present could not help but be slightly moved.
Mayor Zhao and others were all servants of the Ye family. Since Ye Lingyue and Ye Liuyun joined Guyuehai and Yaochi Xianxie in their early years, they had some knowledge of the sects on the mainland.
In particular, Hong Mingyue, Ye Lingyue's archrival, was also from Sansheng Valley, so everyone present in Sansheng Valley knew about it.
Although Yaochi Xianxie has lost its momentum in recent years, it is still a large and established sect, and its reputation and strength are by no means comparable to those of Mayor Zhao and others.
People from Sansheng Valley, when did Luo Sansheng accept such a useless disciple?
Ye Lingyue raised her eyebrows after hearing this.
Because of Hong Mingyue, Ye Lingyue didn't like Sansheng Valley very much, but now that Hong Mingyue is dead, Ye Lingyue doesn't have much prejudice against Sansheng Valley.
But I have to say that the person in front of me named Luo Qing is more than a little inferior to Hong Mingyue.
I wonder what happened to Luo Sansheng to make this person the current leader?
Ye Lingyue took a quick look and saw that Luo Qing's strength could only be considered unsatisfactory. He was weak and his eyes were cloudy. At first glance, he looked like a lustful person.
In today's human world, there is really a shortage of talents, and even this kind of thing can be the master of the day.
Ye Lingyue couldn't help but sigh.
"Chief coach, what do you think?"
Seeing the superior strength of the other party, Mayor Zhao had no choice but to look at the head coach next to him.
"What about Sansheng Valley?"
Coach Wu's face was full of arrogance.
Back then, Hong Mingyue, who was known as the number one genius in Sansheng Valley, was beaten to the ground by someone from their Ye family.
Although the other party's cultivation seems to be good, from the look of his attire, he should be an alchemist.
