Chapter 95 Visiting the Dianshi
Recently, a rumor has been circulating among the rebels in Anchang County.
It is said that there is a Shexi Village in Sanchazi Town, and there is a Shekou Mountain in the village. There are many magical herbs on Shekou Mountain, which can make people improve their cultivation. Improve their cultivation...
There is a village at the foot of Shekou Mountain. There are few men in the village. There are hundreds of beautiful young girls and hundreds of beautiful and plump young wives.
There are thousands of acres of fertile land in the village. This year, thousands of stones of grain were harvested, which can't be eaten up.
Such news spread among the rebels everywhere, and with everyone adding fuel to the fire, it spread more and more widely and more and more magically.
For a while, Shekou Mountain became a holy place that everyone yearned for.
During the casual conversation, everyone wanted to go to Shekou Mountain to rob money, food, and women.
Not to mention that there are magical herbs on the mountain, which are extremely tempting to all warriors and immortals.
Because of such rumors, there was a big battle every three to five days at the foot of Shekou Mountain.
The bodies they killed filled a large pond.
Even so, many people still came to die.
Fortunately, the work in the field has been done now, so it does not affect farming.
Ji Cang trained the team every day, and then analyzed the battles every now and then.
The combination of theory and actual combat has made the combat effectiveness of this team increase rapidly every day.
In the first few battles, Er Gouzi watched carefully from the side, worried that his men would suffer.
After observing several times, he found that the combat effectiveness of the team was getting stronger and stronger, and he no longer needed to worry about dealing with these rebels.
What's more, there were Ji Cang and Sima Yi watching there, so he simply shrank in the mountains and concentrated on refining pills and practicing.
On the other hand, the Zhang Youliang brothers recently seized the rare strategic opportunity to expand outward.
Some rebel bandits were attracted by Shekou Mountain and were beaten to a pulp, and their strength was greatly damaged.
Then these forces will soon be flattened and annexed by the Zhang Youliang brothers.
With rapid expansion, Zhang Youliang already has tens of thousands of people under his command, occupying several towns and villages, becoming an important hegemon among the rebels.
Er Gouzi also understands this. He has no intention of rebelling and becoming king, and is not interested in expanding his territory. It is better to refine pills in the mountains.
Recently, his alchemy skills have improved a lot, becoming more and more mature, and each furnace must produce a pill.
He takes and refines a pill of Peiyuan Pill every two days, and his cultivation improves rapidly.
However, after all his efforts, there are still a lot of main medicine ginseng, and the auxiliary medicine for alchemy is used up.
These medicinal materials were still stockpiled in the county before the turmoil. Now there is chaos and the trade routes are cut off. I don’t know where to buy them.
Maybe I can only sneak into the county to take a look.
After asking Sima Yi about the location of the tunnel, he rode a big goose and left.
He flew all the way on the big goose, and there were wars and battles in almost every place.
But the situation last year where every village and town had flags of kings was gone, and most of the forces no longer existed.
The only thing that surprised him was Dingjiazhuang.
There was chaos outside, but only here was like a paradise, peaceful and calm, and everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment, as if they were not affected at all.
For this, Er Gouzi had to admire the courage of the owner of Dingjiazhuang.
Er Gouzi rode a goose in the sky, of course he could fly directly in.
But this was too ostentatious, and many people would know that he was coming.
Far away from the county town, he got off the goose and walked quietly.
There were only 10 flags left of the 18 rebel kings, but they still surrounded the county town.
Fortunately, these people had poor organization and discipline, so he dressed up as a soldier and successfully mixed into these rebel forces, and then passed through them.
There was a moat outside the county town, but it had been in disrepair for a long time and there was no water in it, and the river was full of all kinds of garbage.
Er Gouzi took advantage of the night and walked in the stinking river. The silt formed by the decay of various garbage was over his calves.
He walked slowly along the river, and his consciousness swept over the earth wall on one side, looking for the entrance.
Finally, his eyes moved and he saw a stone slab with three patterns carved on it. He turned it over.
A dark hole was revealed below, but most of the hole was buried by silt.
Er Gouzi held his breath and went in...
When he came out of the cave in the city, his whole body was covered with stinking silt.
He was so stinking that even beggars on the street despised him and covered their noses and avoided him.
There was no choice but to find a well to change clothes and rinse with cold water.
But there was still a faint odor on his body, so let it be.
After changing his clothes, he first went to the black market.
There are more secret doors in the alley at the entrance. Women, young or old, use their cheap bodies to exchange for a bite or two of precious food.
The old man in the pharmacy is still there, half lying on the chair, half-squinting his eyes to look at Er Gouzi.
"Do you need an abortion or syphilis?"
"Syphilis!"
"What are the symptoms?"
"Cauliflower-like..."
Every time Er Gouzi enters the black market, he will curse the person who set the secret code in his heart.
After entering the black market, he found that it was no longer as lively as before, with only a few pedestrians.
He looked at the stalls along the street and found nothing decent.
The grain store in the black market was closed, and many small shops were closed.
Only Hongfu Building, opened by the county magistrate, remained strong, with its doors open.
Er Gouzi walked in and asked. Fortunately, medicinal materials could still be bought here, but the prices had all increased several times.
And they had to use Pei Yuan Gu Ben Pills or other materials to trade, and even Bai Lian Silver was not accepted.
It can be seen that the entire county is now in urgent need of various materials, lack of food and clothing, and cultivation resources are even more scarce.
And the materials purchased with Pei Yuan Gu Ben Pills are also limited, because there really are not so many goods.
Er Gouzi took out a bottle of Pei Yuan Gu Ben Pills, but only bought a bag of medicinal materials, which was only enough for him to refine more than a dozen furnaces of elixirs.
He was still not giving up, and asked about spiritual medicine, but of course there was none.
After coming out of the black market, he looked around the streets in the city.
Most of the shops in the city were closed, and there were no rice or bushels.
Only the bun shop he used to frequent was still open, with big meat buns wrapped in black grains in the steamer.
He saw a passer-by buy two buns on the road. The skin was very thin, and the stuffing was full of meat.
Er Gouzi was unwilling to go to the county town for nothing.
At this moment, he had unknowingly walked to the door of a wealthy family.
The guard at the door was yelling at a troublemaker.
Er Gouzi looked up and saw that it was the home of the old man Dianshi.
I heard that the Dianshi fell down while riding a goose last time and has been half dead since then. His body has not recovered much, and I don’t know how he is now.
As a former subordinate, Er Gouzi felt it was necessary to visit the Dianshi to see how he was.
It was just that the guard at the door of the Dianshi’s house was too fierce. He was in such a miserable state that he could not get in.
But in this world, as long as you are sincere, any difficulties can be overcome.
Er Gouzi is such a sincere person. He walked to a corner where no one was, took out two yellow talismans, and pasted them on his body.
His figure just disappeared out of thin air, and he became a transparent man, and then walked towards the gate of the Dianshi family.
He came quietly and left quietly, taking only some personal belongings, not disturbing anyone, and seemed polite and not abrupt.
When he walked into the gate, he found that this damn house was really big.
After entering the first door, there were several houses on both sides. Except for the reception room, all the people living here were servants.
There were at least a hundred servants living in the Dianshi family, and they were all fat and strong, with ruddy faces, and there was no sign of famine.
Er Gouzi did not alarm the snake for the time being, and continued to walk inside and walked into the second door.
It seemed much more spacious inside, with a very large courtyard, and fake mountains and water.
After passing the third door, the wives and concubines of the Dianshi lived here.
Wow, this old man actually kept dozens of wives and concubines, all of them were white and tender.
These beauties, coupled with the thin, wrinkled face and sparse hair of the Dianshi, are quite interesting.
Er Gouzi saw the Dianshi in a room. He did not make a move for the time being, but first felt out the situation.
He had already found out that the Dianshi's warehouse was in the back, so he went to the warehouse first.
He walked around a long corridor and saw more than a dozen warehouses of different sizes.
His spiritual sense scanned the inside through the wall, and most of them were granaries for storing grain.
There were rice, corn, soybeans, and sesame.
The grain in these warehouses added up to at least tens of thousands of stones.
Seeing so much food in the warehouse, Er Gouzi could only secretly rejoice in his heart that his gourd could hold a lot of food...
