The years when I explored the fairyland.

Chapter 82 80: Jianghu Hunting Order

It's fighting!

It's really a fight!
Ever since that night, after a fierce battle between Yunya's Third Elder Hu Yungong and Wenxiang Temple's Left Protector Mei Jiaoniang, it was as if a signal had been released, and the struggle between the two factions, which had been somewhat dormant, immediately began.

They fought to the death in the long streets, fought in the alleys, fought in the dark, and fought in the daylight...

They are not as disciplined as the military, nor do they have the habit of large-scale group combat. They usually fight in groups of three or five, or alone, and mainly engage in assassination and ambush.

But in terms of the cruelty of fighting, it is even worse.

Of course, there was a reason why they fought so desperately, because both the Yunya Sword Sect and the Wenxiang Temple had issued a "Jianghu Killing Order".

They each opened up a part of their martial arts pavilion and treasure house and took out a lot of good things.

Kung Fu, martial arts, secret techniques, magic weapons, armor, elixir recipes, secret medicines... almost everything is available.

To be honest, there are so many good things in there. Not to mention outsiders, even disciples of the sect have to have seniority, status, and make outstanding contributions if they want to obtain them.

Just like Luo Gan, as the deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Yunya Sword Sect, with the cultivation level of Tongmai Realm, he actually couldn't obtain the secret method of marrow training? !
But this time, the top-grade martial art "Wind, Frost, Cloud and Snow Sword" was prominently listed in the exchange list of the Yunya Sword Sect, and there were three more martial arts of the same quality.

Of course, everything is good and can be exchanged, but you also need enough merit points.

And these merit points have to be settled by completing various tasks. As for where the tasks come from?
Of course, they were released by both parties. The first one was the heads of the other party's disciples, and each had a different value according to their identity and status.

If you can directly cut off the other party's leader's head, it is not impossible to exchange most of the exchange list.

And this is also the source of motivation for the fight between the two sides!
The most important thing is that this list is not only for the sect’s disciples, but also includes masters outside the sect.

As long as you have registered and received your badge, you are in line.

Of course, as outsiders, the price they pay in exchange for resources will be increased by about 10% to distinguish them from the sect disciples.

The reason why those ghostwriters are still here and want to wade into this muddy water is to wait for this list to be released.

It is conceivable that once this list is released, it will inevitably create a siphon effect.

People from all over Chishui Prefecture, and even from other prefectures and counties, had to rush to Baisha City.

……

That night,

Government Office,

There was a table full of delicious food, with four county magistrates sitting around it. They were flipping through the records in their hands, no one spoke, but their expressions became more and more sad.

When Chu Zhou came in, he saw their appearance and asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Why are you all so worried?"

When the county magistrate saw Chu Zhou, he immediately stood up to greet him. He waited for Chu Zhou to sit down before he put the book in front of him and said, "After reading this, I have lost my mood to eat."

Chu Zhou flipped through it casually and realized that it was a registration book for entering and leaving the city gate.

The Dayun Dynasty actually had a strict household registration management system, and ordinary people were not qualified to run around.

The area where they can move is limited, and they don't need any travel permits, but it's different for these wandering gangsters.

According to the rules, they had to exchange for a travel permit wherever they went. It wasn't that troublesome, they just had to go to the local government office and get a stamp.

Generally speaking, local government offices would not cause trouble in this regard. They are all a group of martial arts masters with great martial arts skills, and the government offices would not cause trouble for no reason.

Of course, policies are policies and realities are realities. Some masters move around at high altitudes, and it is really difficult to expect the guards at the city gates to stop them.

However, the situation in Baisha City is special. In order to strengthen management, the government office has set up desks at the four city gates and dispatched clerks these days.

For anyone coming in and out, inspection is secondary. The main thing is that people from the underworld must register.

Then, there was the registration book in Chu Zhou's hand.

He flipped through it casually, and the county lieutenant Wang Fugui was explaining, "This is only the record of three days. The civilians who came and went are not included. There are more than a hundred people from the underworld alone.

That’s not even counting the masters who went high and high but didn’t go through the city gates.”

On the other side, the chief clerk Gu Xianming also threw over a record book and said, "This is what we got from the Yunya Sword Sect and Wenxiang Temple. It records the people in the martial arts world who received their badges and confirmed their sides.

There are more than the previous record, about one hundred and fifty now."

The county magistrate also had a bitter face and said, "That's it. It's only for these three days. In the future, I estimate that more people will come."

County Magistrate Zhao Yuanwai also had a bitter face: "Three days, just three days, the morgue in the government dungeon is no longer enough.

Those people in the martial arts world are really considered important when they are alive, but when they die, everything is over and they don’t even care about their own corpses.

If it really doesn't work, if it really doesn't work, just throw them in a mass grave, that will give them a peaceful rest."

“Is this not okay?”

The chief clerk Gu Xianming hesitated a little and said, "Forget about those without background, but some of them have family support and sects behind them.

What if he finds me?"

"This?" Mr. Zhao was also helpless and didn't know what to do.

Honestly speaking, in his dreams at midnight, he, a wealthy man from Baisha City, felt that he must have been kicked in the head by a donkey to have accepted the position of "County Magistrate".

If he were not bound by this status, he would have run away long ago. With such a huge fortune, where could he go? Being a rich man would be a safe and secure life for him.

Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now!

"Announce it to the public!"

Chu Zhou finally spoke, he closed the record book in his hand and said: "These people's deaths must be counted as merit points, the two factions must have records, talk to both factions, count the names, and then make it public.

Tell everyone that the body will be posted for ten days. If someone comes to claim it, they can take it away. If no one claims it, just throw it into a mass grave outside the city.

In this way, even if someone has objections, we have shown enough sincerity, and we also provide a package of burial in peace, so no one can cause trouble to us."

Having said this, Chu Zhou added: "By the way, in order to prevent any accidents, the ice cellars of each household can be taken over by the government office.

At that time, we can also handle the body preservation business, charging silver and money on a daily basis, which can also be considered as a source of income."

At this point, Chu Zhou couldn't help laughing. He thought of the one-stop funeral service in his previous life, which had brought him considerable profits.

Especially the cemetery, which is sold at a price higher than the price of a house, and its useful life is only twenty years.

The most speechless thing is that the renewal fee is required after 20 years, but the renewal notice is posted on the tombstone, which is totally out of line.

As soon as these words were spoken, the county magistrate and others looked at Chu Zhou in a different way as if they had seen a ghost.

"Just a joke, liven up the atmosphere!"

Chu Zhou stopped smiling and said, "I know everyone is pessimistic, but if you think about it carefully, the current situation is good.

The assassination attempt by the Red Lotus Sect gave us evidence. Both the Yunya Sword Sect and the Wenxiang Temple sent people back to their own mountain gates to report and wait for the decision from above.

Then, we had more than ten days of peace and stability, and then we had the opportunity to take action.

At least now, the situation is basically stable. Even the fighting over the past three days has not exceeded the scope of the agreement, and there has been little harassment of the people. It is still within the controllable range. "

"Think about it, if we didn't have this time buffer, even if we wanted to maintain order, we probably wouldn't know where to start."

After he said this, the county magistrate and others thought about it and felt that this was the case.

The county lord asked, "Then what do you think we should do now?"

“Contact the capable warriors in Baisha City, form a team, and strengthen patrols. I will ask my four junior brothers to join them and do our best to maintain stability in the city.

Then, the prices of grain, food, herbs, and housing can all be raised, because those people in the martial arts world will have money.

If you have money, spend more."

“However, you must remember that this extra money is not for you to squander. It must be collected by the government and used to subsidize those families that have suffered disasters.

This way, a cycle is formed.”

"As for how to collect the money, I don't think I need to say more. You can figure it out on your own."

After a pause, Chu Zhou continued, "Finally, count all the warriors who have come to practice their marrow. If necessary, I will talk to them one by one and have a discussion with them. This will also be a deterrent!"

Not to mention that Chu Zhou's method is sometimes good and sometimes bad, but at least it is a method, which is much better than the current situation where a group of people are like headless flies.

As expected, the county lord heard it and made the decision directly: "Okay, let's do it according to the master's wishes, I have no objection!"

"I don't have any objection either."

"Then I will be responsible for unifying those warriors and arranging patrols. With the current situation in Baisha City, I believe that those martial arts schools and families will be willing to contribute more."

County lieutenant Wang Fugui directly assigned himself a task and said, "Of course, when I go, I will bring some soldiers and servants with me."

County Magistrate Zhao Yuanwai also spoke up: "Then let me handle the price increase. We can't increase it too much at once, and we have to make those people in the underworld feel that it is reasonable."

"Then I will do the auxiliary work. If you need any help, just tell me directly."

This was the task that Chief Clerk Gu Xianming took on. The county magistrate didn't waste any words and said, "I'll take care of things like foreign negotiations!
I believe that my position as a county lord can still make those people in the underworld feel a little bit afraid of me."

"it is good!"

Chu Zhou nodded in agreement, raised his glass again, and said, "Believe me, and believe in yourselves, we will definitely survive this man-made disaster.

I'm with you!"

"Toast!"

In just a few words, all the work in the government office was arranged and allocated in detail. Under tremendous pressure, the four-member power body headed by the county lord showed unimaginable cohesion and execution.

In any case, they have tried their best, just to help more people survive this man-made disaster.

　The editor has issued a general notice that the game will be on the shelves next Monday. I am still considering adding rules.
　　Does anyone have any opinions?
