Chapter 92, Young Master, stay safe
Qishan County is a relatively prosperous county town in Yuzhou, not far from Yuzhou City.
It takes about two hours to drive the horse.
Since Xu Maoran came to Yuzhou, in addition to making a fortune in the national crisis, he has allowed all townships and counties to contribute various rare treasures.
As for those displaced people, they are naturally not within his consideration.
Originally, all these things were handled by his subordinates, so Xu Maoran didn't need to do it himself, but perhaps it was because he had been in the Yuzhou County Government for a long time and felt a little bored.
So today I chose to go out of the city to go to Qishan County to have some fun.
This is also why Mu Changqing, who is potentially in the dark, has found an opportunity.
A gust of dust rose up on the long pipes, and a team of dozens of people were moving leisurely.
"Young Master, we need to leave here in a few days. News came from Chang'an that the locust plague in Qingping County has been pacified. The court implemented the opportunity of locust hunting and tax on locust relief. It is estimated that in a few days, the implementation order will reach Yuzhou all the way. If someone is interested, we are found in Yuzhou, there may be trouble."
A confidant said humbly to Xu Maoran in the lead.
After hearing this, Xu Maoran couldn't help but feel boundless anger.
Originally, locust plagues were raging, and the people were complaining, and wars were everywhere, and everything was developing in the direction my father expected.
Even if the locust plague is finally settled, it will take a considerable time, with considerable manpower and financial resources. By that time, the Great Yan would have become fragmented and shaky. At that time, it would continue to be effortless to steal the Great Yan Kingdom.
Who knew that Chang'an County went to Qingping County. In just a few days, it created a chance to catch locusts in the whole country, and it actually solved Qingping County, which had the worst disaster.
In this way, the court has promoted the opportunity of national locust hunting. With Qingping County in front, the locust plague will gradually be pacified. Moreover, the people of Dayan have also learned about the deeds of Qingping County under the publicity of the court, and the anxious people have calmed down.
You should know that if you can live a stable life, who is willing to do things that are hostile to the court, you will only embark on that dead end if you are desperate.
What's more, Chang'an County has issued a tax on relief for locusts. The people not only have no losses in the quarantine, but also can earn a lot of money. In this way, the people in the prefectures of Dayan will naturally have a high heart and actively participate in this opportunity for locusts to be caught by the whole people.
Speaking of Mu Changqing, Xu Maoran loves and hates him.
Love nature and love his amazing talent. Who doesn’t want to take it for himself if he is so capable and powerful?
Hate is just that you hate that you are too amazing and talented. If you cannot use such a genius for yourself, you can only destroy it.
This is the dogma of the eternal beliefs of those in power.
The news reached the Yuzhou Prefecture Office. Xu Maoran felt bored when he heard this, so he had this trip to Qishan County.
Qishan official road is well-connected. In addition to having a camphor forest when it is almost close to Qishan County and five miles away, it is basically a spacious and continuous pipeline.
The more I thought about it, the more irritated he became. Xu Maoran raised his horse whip fiercely, and the horse under him felt pain. He immediately raised his hooves and rushed to attack. Seeing this, the guards behind him hurriedly drove the horse to follow.
The group walked outside Zhanglin, and his confidant wanted to speak out to remind his young master, but he didn't dare to say anything when he saw the young master's calm face.
They naturally know the truth that when they are traveling outside, they don’t come in.
But when I thought about it, who dared to be unfavorable to his young master? Besides, with his own group of people, he was enough to deal with any attack, so he didn't say anything.
The team slowly moved into the camphor forest.
It was approaching early summer, and Yuzhou was close to the southern part of Dayan. At this time, it was the time when the sun was strong. The light was projecting through the branches into the dense jungle, making the group feel a little stuffy. However, the vegetation in the forest was lush, and the driving speed slowed down.
In this way, the team slowly drove away from Zhanglin.
Halfway through the journey, a whistling sounded suddenly in the forest, and the guards couldn't help but feel their minds.
This strange roar suddenly sounded in the quiet and bleak jungle, which made them cautious. This sound was not like the sound left by passing animals, but rather like something was passing through the forest and running through the sky at a fast speed.
The group of people couldn't help but widen their pupils and clenched the horse rope, and watched around.
As a result, in the next moment, they saw a scene of scattering their souls.
A huge tree was hitting them at an extremely fast speed, and the strong wind defeated all the blocking objects along the way.
The giant tree was so fast that it was in a blink of an eye. It was obviously too late to avoid it.
"Not good, if there is an enemy attack, protect the young master."
With a loud shout, the guards drew out their swords and surrounded Xu Maoran in the middle.
At this time, Xu Maoran also felt cold to the ground.
He would never have thought that he would ambush the enemy here and attempt to attack himself.
He grabbed the guard in front of him and blocked him, staring at the flying giant tree.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
The sound of bone fractures comes one after another.
The body of a mortal appears so fragile in the face of this powerful force.
The people around the outermost area were instantly shattered by the huge impact of the giant tree, and lost their power of movement and collapsed on the ground. Even if they were not dead, they would inevitably end up with disability.
Fortunately, most of the power of the giant tree was leaked away, and it fell to the ground with a loud bang, causing a shocking dust.
Just as the rest of the people felt that they had escaped a thrill, their pupils could not help but widen again the next moment.
Several huge logs penetrated the forest and slashed their leaves quickly towards them.
The guards looked at each other, and then they didn't care about Xu Maoran who was surrounding the crowd. They turned around and fled in all directions, wishing they could grow their legs at this time.
It is obvious that the strength gap between the two sides is too large, so I may not be able to go out alive today if I stay here.
When the disaster comes, everyone flies to their own lives. Who can still care about Xu Maoran's safety at this time?
The idea is good, but unfortunately the person in the dark may not be what they wished.
A afterimage flew through the forest quickly, and all the guards who tried to escape from this place were wiped out mercilessly and died here without any ability to resist.
If you can resist for a while, you may have a glimmer of hope.
But at this time, everyone was in danger and had no intention of resisting, just focused on escaping their lives, and they could only be defeated one by one.
Xu Maoran stared blankly at the scene that happened in front of him, and his heartbeat seemed to have been missed for half a beat.
Then I saw a corpse being thrown roughly at his feet, and the bright red blood dyed the surface red.
Then a chuckle slowly rang in his ears.
