Chapter 480(1/2)
Just when Li Qingyun was thinking about how to deal with the natives of Heishui Mansion, Chu Qiguang also received information from Yueguan County.
Upon hearing the news, Chu Qiguang's murderous intention flashed away, and two faint firelights flashed in his eyes, and his eyebrows bulged out.
"These natives... actually illegally detained the caravan of our Bashu Chamber of Commerce and prevented free trade."
What Chu Qiguang hated most in his life was being stuck in his business.
However, he quickly suppressed the anger in his heart and instead felt wary.
Because he vaguely smelled a hint of conspiracy in it.
After all, there is no way the chieftains would not know that behind the caravan was Chu Qiguang, the Taoist martial god.
Especially now that Chu Qiguang and Li Qingyun have joined forces to suppress the Shuzhou gentry, and the commotion has been so loud, it is even more impossible for those chieftains not to know about it.
And behind the chieftain is the Jie Sect, Li Yaofeng.
Chu Qiguang immediately wondered if Li Yaofeng wanted to ambush him? So he deliberately detained the caravan?
However, he now has many means, but he is not afraid of Li Yaofeng's ambush, but he is just wary in his heart.
Chu Qiguang was seen riding on the hawk demon Qiao Zina, soaring into the sky towards the location of Yueguan County.
…
Yueguan County, Majia Village.
The caravan of the Bashu Chamber of Commerce and the troops led by the magistrate of Yueguan County were now blocked in a mountainous area by thousands of natives from Heishui Prefecture.
The magistrate of Yueguan County is named Liu He. He is less than thirty years old and can be considered young and promising.
At this moment, he was holding a long spear, and his blood burst out: "I have endured these unruly natives for too long."
"Now you dare to attack the imperial officials, which is tantamount to rebellion."
"Everyone breaks out with me. If there is resistance, we will kill them on the spot."
The inspector from the Inspection Department on the side objected: "Your Majesty, there are at least several thousand natives outside. I think we should wait."
Liu He glared at him, but heard the chief clerk on the side also said: "Everyone, please be patient. I think Heishui Mansion will send someone to make peace soon. We can just wait a little longer."
Following what the chief clerk said, all the Yamen officers on the side put down their swords and guns and retreated, ignoring the order of Liu He, the county magistrate.
Liu He glared at them: "Okay, okay, when the Chu Town envoy comes, I will see how you explain."
The chief clerk sneered and said lightly: "Your Majesty, you should think about your future life in our county."
Hearing this, Liu He's eyes became filled with murderous intent, and the spear in his hand seemed to want to be stabbed out at the next moment.
Ever since he came to Yueguan County and became the county magistrate, he has been hindered by the local indigenous people at every turn.
Not only do most of the people below have blood relationships with the aborigines, but most of the people in the county are also deeply influenced by the aborigines, and they are all followers of the Jie Cult.
Even the yamen, apart from him, were all members of the Jie Cult and the chieftains, so he was often unable to use his power and was manipulated by the local chieftains at will.
However, thinking that Chu Qiguang and Li Qingyun were now teaming up to suppress the local tyrants and gentry, Liu He looked at the chief clerk in front of him, and the officers said coldly: "Those who don't know whether to live or die, don't know when a disaster is coming."
The chief clerk said calmly: "What the county magistrate wants to say is that Chu Qiguang? He can control you, but he may not be able to control the affairs of the Jie Sect."
At this moment, I saw a round of fire rising up in the sky, and the surge of flames spread wildly, bringing with it a layer of fire that illuminated the heaven and earth.
Suddenly, it was like two suns rising in the sky.
Within dozens of miles, countless people looked up to the sky in shock. Some natives even knelt down on the spot and kowtowed to the sky.
Above the clouds, Qiao Zina watched Chu Qiguang jump down while flying, and suddenly thought about whether to take the opportunity to escape.
However, recalling the last time she was shouted down by Chu Qiguang, and looking at Chu Qiguang's power after breaking through to the Taoist Martial God, she finally gave up the idea of escape.
'Oh, the cat demon is just a pariah in Da Zhu. I never thought that one day I would be trampled under the feet of a cat demon.'
Qiao Zina remembered Chu Qiguang's instructions, flapped her wings, and disappeared into the clouds, preventing people below from seeing her.
After Chu Qiguang jumped off Qiao Zina's body, he circulated his energy and blood, transforming into layers of flaming aura that enveloped his whole body.
As the strange power in the body turned wildly, the flame energy continued to expand, and then turned into a scorching sun that everyone saw, attracting the attention of countless people on the ground.
I saw Chu Qiguang, filled with flaming aura, falling like a meteor to the ground towards the thousands of natives surrounding the caravan.
The next moment, rolling waves of sound erupted from Chu Qiguang's body, spreading in all directions like continuous thunder.
“Who’s standing in the way of free trade?”
Witnessing this horrific scene like a natural disaster and listening to the surging and shocking sound, most of the natives screamed and dispersed in all directions.
The native generals restrained their subordinates, but they could not control them at all. In the end, only a dozen people were left in place.
When Chu Qiguang was surrounded by the flames in the sky and slowly fell to the ground, most of the natives had dispersed.
Chu Qiguang looked at the indigenous generals and more than a dozen soldiers who were standing firm in front of him and said calmly: "Which chieftain are you from?"
The general looked at Chu Qiguang, who was wrapped in flames, and felt that he was constantly releasing light and heat like a sun god. Even his hair, eyebrows, and eyes were filled with raging firelight.
Feeling the rolling heat wave sweeping over him, the skin on his body seemed to be aching. The general held on and said, "I am the deputy general Miao Xuanwei's subordinate."
Deputy Ambassador Xuanwei is a chieftain officer set up by the Han Dynasty and inherited from generation to generation by the indigenous people. The Miao family is the strongest indigenous force in Heishui Prefecture and the clan force that has served the Jie religion in the past generations.
Chu Qiguang said calmly: "Break off one of your arms and get out of here."
Hearing this, the indigenous general held on and said, "Even a martial god cannot be so unreasonable. I am from the Xuanwei Division..."
"Am I... trying to reason with you?"
The next moment, Chu Qiguang flicked his index finger.
A golden flaming sword energy had arrived across the sky, and the general's arms were broken at the elbow, and the blood that shot out was instantly evaporated by the high temperature.
If you don't want to cut off one of your arms, then I'll cut off both of your hands.
The native general screamed and fell to his knees directly on the ground.
At this moment, he truly felt the domineering power of the Taoist Martial God.
The other soldiers looked at Chu Qiguang in horror.
The native general gritted his teeth and tried his best to lower his head, preventing Chu Qiguang from seeing the look of resentment in his eyes.
"get out."
The native soldiers supported the general and left in a hurry.
Chu Qiguang turned his head and looked at the woods where the caravan was.
I saw him move, flashing several times in a row, and he was already in front of the caravan and the Liuhe County Magistrate.
With a casual glance, Chu Qiguang's seeker eyes looked at Liu He, who was in the fifth realm of martial arts, and said, "Are you the magistrate of Yueguan County?"
Liu He immediately held up his hands and said, "I've met Liu He, the envoy of Chu Town."
Chu Qiguang said calmly: "I heard that there are evil cults in Yueguan County all year round. This indigenous riot is also closely related to the evil cult."
"Are there any of your men who are colluding with the chieftain? Or believe in the Jie Cult?"
Hearing this, Liu He subconsciously looked at the chief registrar of Yueguan County.
The fire in Chu Qiguang's eyes flickered slightly, he looked at the chief secretary and said, "Are you a Jie Cult believer?"
The chief secretary froze, but with so many local soldiers and guards staring at him, he did not dare to deny his belief.
Finally, he bit the bullet and said: "Although I am a Jie Cult believer, I am also a court official. Even the Martial God cannot..."
Whoosh!
The flaming sword energy surged forward, splitting the chief clerk in two in an instant, turning into a ball of flame and falling to the ground.
The crowd around him screamed, looking at Chu Qiguang in horror or hatred.
Chu Qiguang snorted coldly, and his faint voice was like a thunder exploding out of thin air: "The Jie Sect is a cult designated by the imperial court. According to the "Han Law", all cult members will be killed."
"Who else is the Jie Cult? Come forward and show me."
Seeing that everyone present was cowering and no one dared to admit that they were followers of the Jie Cult, Liu He felt a sense of joy in his heart.
Chu Qiguang glanced at him and saw that no one dared to stand up, but there was a trace of doubt in his heart: 'I am so grand, but Li Yaofeng hasn't taken action yet?'
His eyes suddenly froze: 'Isn't I the target?'
Thinking of this, he stirred up a gust of wind as soon as he moved, and in the blink of an eye he appeared hundreds of meters away.
…
Xuanji Mountain.
As a door to the Buddhist world opened out of thin air, two figures slowly emerged from it.
Li Yaofeng in red robes stood together with a bald monk, walking towards the top of the mountain.
The monk's face was like topaz, and his skin shone with an earth-like luster, giving people a feeling of weight and perfection.
He looked at the snow-capped mountains in front of him and let out a long sigh: "I never thought that one day I would return to this world."
This monk, whose name is Colorless, was encountered by Li Yaofeng when he went deep into the underground of the Buddhist world to look for the Buddha's fire.
Monk Wu Se is a direct disciple of Kongang Temple, but he entered the Buddhist world a long time ago and became a member of the Sealing Sect.
