Chapter 29 The arrow is on the string and has to be fired
Dongjun, Qingshan County.
On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, there are only five days left before the River God Festival!
In the county government, the four main foundation builders, Qiao Xuan, Wen Renjie, Kong Gongzi, and Xu Xiao, have arrived.
Xu Xiao was the last one to arrive.
When he saw Xu Xiao coming back alone, the disappointment in Zhang Qingyun's eyes could not be concealed: "Is Taoist Master Jiang still missing?" Man, I can't force my way into Qingxuan Temple, so I have to come back."
Master Kong couldn't help but sneer after hearing this: "Taoist Master Jiang is a master of Penglai, how can he pay attention to these casual cultivators like me? "
"We came to invite you, but it seems that we don't know the etiquette. Others don't know it, and they think we are trying to impress others."
Everyone was not reassured by these strange words. After all, Master Kong Kong went to invite Jiang Sheng and came back dejected without even meeting him. It is normal to be a little angry.
Wen Renjie's face was a little gloomy: "We will gather everyone to set out tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow is the time to take action. Right now, Director Jiang is in retreat. If Director Jiang does not show up in two days, there will be a loophole in our plan."
As soon as these words came out, Qiao Xuan and Xu Xiao's expressions sank.
Yes, Jiang Sheng's strength is recognized by everyone, so Jiang Sheng is also the most suitable candidate for the main attack.
In the plan, both Qiao Xuan and Wen Renjie planned to let Jiang Sheng take the main attack, while they would take care of them on both sides.
After all, casual cultivators cherish their lives the most, knowing that they have everything while alive, and even a good reputation is of no use after they die.
Not to mention Mr. Kong Kong, who was seeking his own best interests by sneaking a sneak attack on Jiang Sheng during the siege of the River God.
When the time comes that I have harvested the Zifu treasure, I can also kill Jiang Sheng, a hidden enemy, and maybe even occupy Jiang Sheng’s dojo. That is simply killing three birds with one stone.
Zhang Qing looked at these foundation-building monks who were so high above them that they were treated as guests no matter where they were in the East County. There was a hint of unhappiness in his eyes: Everyone has their own little thoughts, and the war is coming. He is planning his own little plan without considering the overall situation. The mentality of the casual cultivator is really unbearable.
Looking at her smart best friend, Xu Xiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart. How could she not know that Zhang Qing actually used these casual cultivators as chess pieces, but these casual cultivators could become architects? Damn it, how many of them are fools?
How could they not know that when a chess piece loses its function, it is an abandoned piece? How could they be willing to be abandoned? !
Nowadays, everyone is united on the surface, but in fact everyone has a backup plan. No one can tell what the chance of success is in the plan to deal with the demon in the river.
Thinking like this, Xu Xiao suddenly thought of Jiang Sheng in Qingping Mountain. Had Jiang Dao Zhang anticipated all this, so he chose not to come and stay out of the chess game?
Zhang Qing sighed, her pretty face full of determination: "Everyone, we have no retreat now, the plan must go on as usual."
"On the twenty-seventh of the twelfth lunar month, the little girl will meet her father in person Take the others with you to Donghe Town. The others will attract the attention of the casual cultivators, and the few just need to choose the opportunity to take action."
Qiao Xuan still looked like an old farmer, twitching. Lighting the dry smoke, he was silent for a long time before saying: "Now, this is the only way."
Wen Renjie also smiled freely: "A certain family has killed so many powerful enemies in this life, but has never killed a river god. Now that there is this opportunity, a certain family would like to give it a try."
See Mr. Kong Kong. Everyone else agreed, so he would not object.
Anyway, regardless of whether Jiang Sheng goes or not, he will betray him, and although Mr. Kong Kong doesn’t want to admit it, if Jiang Sheng is not here, he will indeed relax more and the chance of success will be higher.
So Young Master Kong also nodded and made a smart look: "I am not afraid either, but they are just monsters. How can we, the monks, not be able to kill them?"
Zhang Qingjian Zhuang immediately smiled and said: "Three of you are indeed famous heroic knights in Qingzhou! Please rest assured, we will give you half of what we promised on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, and the other half will be given to you later, regardless of success or failure."
Zhang Qing also knew that people need to pay for their lives, so she made a big promise.
Qiao Xuan, Wen Renjie and Young Master Kong were naturally surprised when these words came out. It was great to get half of the reward in advance. If not, they could run away on the spot.
The time has come to the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the curfew in Qingshan County has been completed. Each door is controlled by reliable guards to prevent anyone from leaving. At the same time, there are also Qi Practitioners stationed to prevent any monks from escaping.
The entire Qingshan County was shrouded in the heavy haze before the war. No matter the gentry, wealthy businessmen or the common people, they were not optimistic about Zhang Qingyun's demon slaying action.
Everyone knew about the matter before it even started, and they wanted to kill the river god with great fanfare. How could it be possible?
However, the gentry could not stop Zhang Qingyun's actions, because Zhang Qingyun was not only a county official, he also won over a large number of monks and had the actual say in Qingshan County.
So even though everyone was not optimistic about Zhang Qingyun's actions, they were unable to stop it and could only watch it happen.
Many gentry even cried with their families in despair, and the ignorant people were even more panicked to buy food. The wealthy businessmen did not expect that they could make another fortune, but who had any thoughts at this time? make money?
Of course not everyone is panicked.
Huang Shiren Mr. Huang was very calm, not at all afraid of the upcoming catastrophe. Instead, he excitedly reported the news to the River God in his study: "Sir, tomorrow the county magistrate will bring those scattered Xiu went to Donghe Town.”
The statue of the River God asked aloud: "All the casual cultivators are here?" Huang Shiren said: "Except Jiang Sheng. It is said that the county magistrate and the female cultivators from the Nalan Yue Sect have invited Jiang Sheng several times, but Jiang Sheng has gone into seclusion. "
The River God Statue took it as a matter of course: "I have already predicted it! The Taoist priest from Penglai is not stupid. He knows that this trip will never come back, so where can he go again? Deliberately committing suicide."
Huang Shiren quickly boasted: "Master, you have blessed Qingshan County for decades, and the people are grateful to you. If the county magistrate wants to attack you, the gentry and the people are opposed."
"It's a pity that the county magistrate is acting in the opposite direction and does not understand the people's hearts, so he must hit the stone with an egg."
"Tomorrow when he discovers that the master's power cannot be resisted by those casual cultivators who just practice Qi and build foundations, he will definitely regret it and cry bitterly."
The statue of the River God said: "I know what you are thinking. , when I kill those ants and flood several towns in Qingshan County, then he, a rebellious magistrate, will naturally be deposed, and I will ensure that you become the next magistrate of Qingshan County. "
Huang Shiren's eyes were full of surprise after hearing this: "If I can become the magistrate of Qingshan County, I will bring all the gentry and common people in the county to worship the master!"
The statue of the River God fell into silence again, but Huang Shiren's face was full of expectation and excitement: "I can also be the county magistrate!"
"The daughter of County Magistrate Zhang is smart and beautiful, but her temper is too arrogant and she never takes it seriously. I take it seriously, but I like this temperament. When her father becomes a prisoner tomorrow, I don’t know if she will be able to be arrogant."
At the same time, in the county government office, dozens of Qi Lianqi San practitioners were having a drink and a banquet.
The four foundation-building casual cultivators, Wang Tianfang, Li Hao, Han Li, and Qian Ming, have also arrived.
It can be said that the strongest force in Qingshan County is gathered in this county government.
Including four foundation-building monks, including Mr. Qiao Xuanqiao in the late-stage of foundation-building, Fairy Xu Xiao, Wen Renjie, and Young Master Kong in the middle-stage of foundation-building, plus Wang Tianfang and four of them in the early-stage of foundation-building. The casual cultivator.
And there are over forty Qi Qi Qi Qi practitioners ranging from the eighth level to the fifth level.
With such a force assembled, not to mention suppressing Qingshan County, even if Zhang Qingyun went crazy and wanted to attack other counties, he would be absolutely sure to win.
Zhang Qingyun sat at the main seat and watched the casual cultivators eating and drinking to their heart's content. When everyone had almost eaten, he said loudly: "You all came to Qingshan County to participate in this grand event with Zhang. Zhang is grateful."
“The demons in the Taiping River have been raging in Qingshan County for decades, causing countless murders, and the people of Qingshan County have suffered greatly!”
“Today we gather together to drink this cup. Wine, rush to Donghe Town tomorrow and kill the demon!”
When the casual cultivators heard this, they all stopped eating and drinking: Will we kill the demon tomorrow?
Didn’t it mean that it was only launched on the day of the River God Festival?
Most of these casual cultivators came to Qingshan County with the intention of having a good time, eating and drinking, and then ran away after receiving the reward from the county government during the River God Festival.
They would not be stupid enough to deal with the monster in the river.
Looking at Zhang Qingyun’s intention now, the plan has obviously been advanced, but how can they run away now?
Wang Ping, a casual cultivator at the fifth level of Qi training, was about to stand up and speak when he saw Young Master Kong Kong standing up and looking at them: "Everyone, Young Master Japan will personally lead the team to set off tomorrow. There is still time now. Does anyone have any questions? Hurry up.”
Wang Ping was still struggling when he saw a casual cultivator at the eighth level of qi training getting up. Wang Ping recognized that casual cultivator, his name was Fang Xi, and he was also a heroic hero.
I saw Fang Xi clasping her fists at Young Master Kong Kong: "Master Kong Kong, I am naturally willing to go with you to defeat the demon. But right now I have some unfinished business in the city. Can you allow me to go first? Come back after settling the matter?"
Master Kong smiled and nodded, and then he took action in full view of everyone!
The Bishui Magic Sword drew a faint blue sword light, directly killing the unsuspecting Fang Xi with a sword!
When Fang Xi's body fell heavily to the ground and blood splashed on the faces of the people around him, they realized: they had no way out!
Mr. Kong Kong sneered and said: "Since everyone is here, there is no reason to quit midway."
"Whoever wants to leave, I will give him a ride!"
All Qi training practitioners have made wise choices.
Unable to tolerate their objections, Young Master Kong Kong, Wen Renjie, Qiao Xuan, and Wang Tianfang were four casual cultivators in the early stages of foundation building. A total of seven foundation building forces surrounded them.
A group of Qi-training monks would be killed indiscriminately if they encountered a foundation builder, let alone seven at the moment?
And although Fairy Xu Xiao of Lan Yue Sect has not made any move, it is clear that no one of them is allowed to withdraw.
They have been used as cannon fodder!
