Chapter 133 The Turmoil Continues
The night passed quickly and the next day came quietly.
Li Yanbing in Luohe City felt a headache after looking at the secret report in her hand. She really didn't expect that changes in other places seemed to have begun to occur in the past few days before the rebellion in Liuzhou passed.
"The Northern Barbarians are knocking at the gate, and these wolves who eat people without spitting out bones actually saw the right opportunity and prepared to go south!"
"I'm afraid Liangzhou won't be able to hold on for long. Although the combat effectiveness of the border troops is stronger than that of the government troops, with the continuous natural and man-made disasters, it is difficult to supply food and grass..."
The first piece of news in the secret report was related to the peril of the entire Daxia Dynasty. The barbarians from the north were brutal and plundering.
It is now winter and the northern wilderness is probably covered with ice and snow. It is the time for these barbarians to go south to burn, kill and loot.
In addition, there is another news that also caught Li Yanbing's attention, that is, the sudden appearance of incense towers in various states.
The people who suppressed Guisi were not blind, so they naturally noticed that Xiang Temple had made such a big noise.
It's just that what Xiang Temple is doing now seems to be doing good things. After all, distributing money and food to the people cannot be considered wrong.
"Can people from Xiang Temple have such a kind heart?"
Li Yanbing couldn't help but sneer after seeing the description in the secret report. Pigs had to be fattened before being killed. Who could hide this kind of thing?
"The Lord of Incense is Born"
However, compared with the situation of Xiang Gong Tower, these four words are the real bombshell.
This means the beginning of real troubled times, because every time this saint appears, there will be a period of darkness without exception!
After staring at these four words for a while, Li Yanbing put down the secret report in his hand.
"Incense towers have appeared in Linzhou and Mingzhou. I'm afraid Jiangzhou will also be infiltrated by the other side!"
"No, that's not right. These two states are close to Jiangzhou, but it is abnormal that there is no incense offering tower. Could it be because of Senior Monkey King Qitian?"
When the treacherous form of the Xiangmiao Patriarch appeared in Luohe City, he was directly repelled by the Monkey King. Now that the Monkey King has become a half-step saint, it is normal for the other party not to want to provoke him.
"Go and call Chang Sheng!"
However, after thinking about it carefully, Li Yanbing still ordered directly to the guard outside the door.
"As you command!"
As the guards left, a silver-medal catcher with a calm face soon came to Li Yanbing.
"Sir, are you looking for me?"
"Well, you go to the villages and towns near the border between Linzhou and Mingzhou to see if there are any incense towers. If there are any, demolish them directly. If you don't pay attention to inquire about the surrounding situation, if someone is tempting people to worship the Five Blessings God, just directly Take it!”
Li Yanbing looked at him and said without hesitation that she absolutely did not believe that people from Xiang Temple would do anything good.
It’s better to do this kind of thing sooner rather than later. The later it is, the more people will be affected. When the problem reaches a large scale, it will be impossible to solve it.
"Yes, I obey!"
Chang Sheng heard the words and immediately understood the meaning. To put it bluntly, he would rather kill by mistake than let go!
Soon Chang Sheng left Luohe City with a group of heavily armored paper men, and it didn't take long to reach other places in Jiangzhou at the speed of a trickster.
Nowadays, the entire Jiangzhou is recuperating, and refugees who have fled from other states are being resettled in deserted villages and towns that have encountered strange disasters.
Everywhere in the fields there are farmers who are working hard to open up wasteland. They are still working despite the freezing temperatures in early winter.
According to the government, the reclaimed wasteland belongs to them, and no taxes will be collected for the first three years!
Land is the lifeblood of farmers, and exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes can be life-threatening.
Now that both of these things belong to them, it is a great blessing for the farmers and people.
After all, there is a big river in Jiangzhou, and the water source is relatively sufficient compared to other places. As long as more land is reclaimed, there will be no need to go hungry in the coming year.
In a market town near Mingzhou, many people were gathering in a teahouse and restaurant to discuss some news they had heard recently.
"Then the Five Fortune Gods are really so powerful?"
"That's not true. After believing in the God of Five Blessings, our family got a lot of white rice and flour. Those are precious things. We are reluctant to eat them. We will wait until the Chinese New Year to use them to celebrate a good New Year!"
"I've also heard that as long as you go to burn incense, you can get money and food!"
"Hey, dear, is there such a good thing?"
"I want to go too!"
…
The same scene happened in many places. Chang Sheng did not see the existence of the so-called incense building when he came here, but he often heard these claims.
For this reason, he deliberately captured a few people who praised the God of Five Blessings everywhere. In the end, these were just ordinary people who received small favors from Gongxiang Tower.
"I'm afraid most of the people in Mingzhou believe in this God of Five Blessings!"
Finally, based on clues, he learned that most people in Mingzhou have now become incense believers of the Five Fortune Gods, and he immediately felt a chill.

"Yes, yes, there are now a total of twenty-one disciples!"
Lin Feng, who was sitting on a deck chair basking in the sun in the D-shaped cemetery, suddenly opened his eyes and smiled with satisfaction.
The current situation is that it is blooming everywhere, and many paper collectors have found apprentices.
"You can ask the corpse collector to teach his apprentice some martial arts, um, boxing, light kung fu, stick technique, and the internal skill of breathing."
Lin Feng has a lot of martial arts in his hands. If these disciples can master one or two moves, not only will they become top-notch masters in the world, they will at least have a stronger ability to save their lives when encountering strange situations.
"For boxing, choose Shaoyang Fist Strength, which is most suitable for masculine people to learn. For light kung fu, Shadowless Step is quite good. As for stick skills, Ape Demon Stick Skill is very good."
"Swords and knives are a bit eye-catching after all. When practicing stick skills, as long as you have a wooden stick, it is a weapon. There is no need to be so particular."
"Finally, it is internal strength. What should I choose?"
"Nine Turns Swallowing Qi Kung Fu is a step-by-step step when practicing. It can lay a solid foundation and progress quickly. Just choose it!"
Lin Feng soon chose the martial arts to be passed down. He was still optimistic about those disciples.
This is not his previous life. As the saying goes, a teacher for a day is a father for life. The inheritance of master and apprentice in this era is not just a name.
"Today, Wangcai has caught something good again!"
At this time, the old cripple came back with a hoe, and Wangcai beside him was holding a pheasant in his mouth.
Since Lin Feng turned the wasteland behind the cemetery into a vegetable garden, the old cripple basically ran to the vegetable garden every day.
Either watering or turning the soil, or making the fence tighter.
Anyway, this old guy has never stopped since he got this piece of land, he almost slept in the land.
"Not bad, not bad, I didn't raise you in vain!"
Lin Feng was not surprised to see Wangcai's achievements. This guy now catches everything flying in the sky, swimming in the water, and running on the ground!
"This dog is well raised. Many people are jealous. Hehe, some even asked me if I can take it to breed!"
The old cripple put the hoe at the foot of the wall, and when he turned his head and said this to Lin Feng, his expression looked very obscene.
"Bah, this guy is only four months old and he wants to take it to breed. I think he is crazy?"
Lin Feng couldn't help rolling his eyes. In this day and age, dogs that look good can have a harem?
