Chapter 42 Secret

Qingya County is slowly recovering after the war. Although the population is still very sparse, some people are already doing business on the street. The sense of stability brought by the army has given many people confidence, and those who escaped before have returned one after another. It is more difficult to survive outside the city.

Bandits and wild beasts are fatal dangers to ordinary people, not to mention that there are houses left by their ancestors in the city. Although many houses have been burned down, the deeds are still there.

After enduring a little hardship, you can rebuild it, and the people are best at enduring hardships.

Chen Luo, who finished breathing early in the morning, went out.

When he found that he had nowhere to go, he didn't waste time in the village, but prepared to look for other ways. For example, his master Ma Quezi, he might have a way to find some better secrets.

This is also the only high-level warrior who has a relationship with him.

Although Ma Quezi is useless, the people he knew in the past must still be alive. When people come together, a network of relationships is established, just like when his uncle brought him to Master Ma to practice martial arts.

At first, Chen Luo was going to Yanhu County, but two days ago he received news that Ma Quezi and his gang were back.

It's not easy to get along in Yanhu County either. Every city has its own local bosses. As an outsider gang, the Shahu Gang encountered resistance from local gangs when it was developing in the past. Although it barely gained a foothold, it was still difficult to support so many people.

During this period, everyone who went there had a hard time. After hearing about the policy of the new magistrate of Qingya County, the gang leader decided to let some people come back first to see. At the very least, he couldn't let others take over the rights and interests that belonged to their Shahu Gang.

As for the killing of Magistrate Lou, it's been so long, who still remembers it! Even if someone asked about it, it was done by the rebels. What does it have to do with the good people of their Shahu Gang? However, judging from the reaction above, it didn't seem like they were going to pursue the matter. As soon as the new Magistrate Zhou took office, he started to form his own team and made a lot of money. He never asked about Magistrate Lou from beginning to end. It is estimated that he had forgotten about it.

When people leave, the tea gets cold. This sentence is particularly applicable in official circles.

The main gate of the county road.

The loess road spreads from the mountains and forests to the foot of the city wall. The city wall, which was burned by the war, is no longer so miserable after being repaired during this period.

On the official road, some pale and thin people carried bags, crutches, and rushed to the county town with their families. These people were the people of Qingya County who had fled to the surrounding countryside to avoid the war. Now they got the news and rushed back again.

Some slightly richer families also rented donkey carts, loaded their belongings and rode with their wives and children.

From a distance, it was as lively as ants moving.

Chen Luo also mixed in with these people.

The house rented by Chen Laosan was also in the countryside. After he left home in the morning, he got on the donkey cart and traveled slowly with these refugees.

"Get out of the way!"

The scene was broken. A vermilion luxurious carriage came from the back. The driver shouted loudly and waved the whip in his hand. Some people who gave way slowly were whipped. However, these ordinary people were used to it. Even if they were whipped, they rolled quickly to the side to avoid being hit by the carriage and causing secondary damage.

The owner of the donkey cart that Chen Luo was sitting on was very understanding. As soon as he heard the sound, he controlled the donkey cart to pull over.

You can't afford to provoke a horse rider.

This is common sense for ordinary people. No one will go to trouble the other party for such a small matter as giving way. The most important thing for ordinary people is their own life. Only those who have solved the problem of food and clothing and pursue spiritual level will care about these "faces".

In the carriage, a young man in luxurious clothes and a black-bearded scholar sat opposite each other.

The middle-aged scholar sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest his mind. He was very calm. The young man was different. From his expression, it can be seen that he was angry now. He pulled open the curtain of the carriage and took a look at the poor and backward scene outside. His dissatisfaction became stronger and stronger.

"I was thrown into such a remote place. The old man is getting more and more partial." The young man finally couldn't help but speak out his heart.

This young man was none other than the nineteenth son of King Ning.

Prince.

The biggest beneficiary behind the Qingya County incident was King Ning. The dead people of Qingya County were all numbers on the merit book of King Ning and his people. Including the current Qingya County Magistrate, they are all blood-eating people. What's more ridiculous is that the court issued an official document some time ago to settle the Qingya County rebellion.

King Ning's faction made great contributions to the rehabilitation and gained a lot of benefits.

Such a ridiculous thing is going on openly in this country.

The imperial power and the local areas are completely blocked.

There are already signs of the end of the dynasty.

"Prince, be careful with your words."

The middle-aged scholar opened his eyes and looked at the young man who was full of resentment. He couldn't help but flash a trace of disappointment in his eyes.

This is the person he assisted.

Such a mentality is much worse than that of the other princes. It is completely not the same level. The most important thing is that he has no help from his mother's family. It can be said that from the beginning, the fate of this nineteenth prince was doomed. It's okay if he has no ambition, and he can still be rich and noble for a lifetime. If he has an undue greed, the final outcome will definitely not be too good.

This can be seen from being expelled to Qingya County this time.

The things in the valley of Qingya County had been dug up by King Ning a few days ago. What was left were some scraps, which were basically worthless.

But even so, King Ning was not ready to give up.

Sending the Nineteenth Son here was also a way to squeeze out the surplus value, and to get rid of this not-so-smart son, saving his life in disguise. It was a pity that the Nineteenth Son could not understand these things. All he could do was complain. What a fool.

"What else should I be careful about? All the resources on the surface have been distributed to my eldest brother by the old man. I, a bastard who is not loved by my father and mother, can only try my luck at this third-class resource point."

The face of the young prince was full of unwillingness.

"If it's not that my blood concentration is not enough, huh? Stop the car!"

The Nineteenth Son, who was complaining, suddenly changed his face, and then quickly shouted to the driver.

The speeding carriage stopped quickly under the control of the driver.

"What's wrong?"

The middle-aged scholar looked at him in confusion.

The Nineteenth Prince did not reply to him, but jumped off the carriage and looked around carefully.

Just now, the jade pendant in his arms became hot!

This jade pendant was given by his father, and each of their descendants has one. Ordinary people would only think that it was the prince's love, but the Nineteenth Prince knew the secret behind this matter.

Immortal fate!

As long as there is the "power of immortal text" nearby, the jade pendant will become hot. This involves the secret of immortal cultivation, which is also the ultimate secret of the Ning Wang family. This secret can only be known by their direct bloodline who "have qualifications".

His father dared to think about that position because he had contact with the "immortal".

Strength gives birth to ambition.

This is an eternal truth.

The Nineteenth Prince is keen to show off, and there is no idea that he wants to use his father to contact the "immortal".

After all, who doesn't want to live forever when living in the world!
