Chapter 70

"Because the Xiong family is the first powerful family in Mengyu County, it is only one step away from becoming a new famous family in Yu County!"

Yang Tiangang said quietly, "as long as his Xiong family can become a famous family in Yu County, it is one of the first-class forces in the whole Yu county to shake Tianzong! What does the life and death of Mengyu county have to do with them!"

The strong Xiong family was like a mountain, which pressed the four martial arts monks in the hall house out of breath. There was a moment of silence. Blacksmith Zhang said, "what about the other two giants in the county? What do the people of Ning family and Yu family say?"

This time, without Yang Tiangang's answer, Xu Sanniang guessed: "I'm afraid the people of Ning family and Yu family won't be embarrassed with the bear family at this time!"

Blacksmith Zhang didn't understand: "why, aren't you afraid that the Xiong family will turn against them after becoming a famous family in Yu county? What's more, the production of Linggu in the county will be reduced. What the Xiong family has done, and the Ning and Yu families have not lost?"

Xu Sanniang said with a wry smile: "It is precisely because the Xiong family is at the crucial moment of promotion. At this time, anyone who wants to make trouble with them will die. Therefore, the other two families are wary of rats. Besides, Ning and the remaining two families are strong and powerful in a county with real life monks. At best, the loss caused by the giant locust disaster will reduce their production by 30% or 40%. The Xiong family only sees one third of the food tax, I'm afraid so To take care of the feelings of the two families! "

Yang Junshan listened to the words of several martial arts friars in the hall. Different from what they thought, why did the shaking emperor so easily agree with the Xiong family?

Naturally, shaking Tianzong will not fail to see the truth of doing everything in it. But shaking Tianzong still acquiesced in the Xiong family's doing so. At most, it just let the Xiong family charge ahead and take the black pot for shaking Tianzong. It can be seen that the fundamental reason is not that they are greedy for this Linggu in Mengyu County, but that shaking Tianzong really has an urgent demand for this Linggu!

From the red rust original stone incident to the current grain tax incident, Yang Junshan seemed to see a giant standing on the edge of the cliff, trying to grab every straw to save his life. He would not estimate whether the slender straw could bear its huge weight.

Yang Tiangang came forward and the grain tax collection in tuqiu village was completed very quickly. This was originally expected by everyone, but it was not the case in other villages. Originally, the production was reduced by two-thirds due to the giant locust disaster, which could shake the Tianzong's grain tax. The whole village in Mengyu County could be said to immediately complain.

However, shaking Tianzong gained great prestige in the whole Yu County. Although the spiritual farmers were reluctant, they did not have the courage to challenge the authority of shaking Tianzong. Finally, they clenched their teeth and paid enough food taxes. Moreover, in the process of collecting food taxes, the upper monks of shaking Tianzong kept coming down to urge the review, especially the Xiong family, because this matter was related to the family fate, so they were shaking the banner of shaking Tianzong During the inspection of villages and towns in Mengyu County, many linggeng farmers with resistance were scolded, abused, threatened and even beaten by these people!

In wasteland town, it was tuyuan village that paid the full grain tax immediately after tuqiu village. The former village of tuyuan village was Qian Chunlai. After this person went to the town guard office, the village of tuyuan village fell on his brother Qian Yinglai.

Although Qian Chunlai squeezed out his biggest competitor Yang Tiangang this time, he wanted to get the recommendation from Liu zhenshou. This time, collecting grain tax is undoubtedly his best performance opportunity.

It is said that Qian Chunlai was angry in tuyuan village. It is said that an old spiritual farmer in tuyuan village was forced to death by Qian Chunlai's brothers because he was unwilling to pay grain tax. Even within the Qian family, he was criticized for Qian Chunlai's actions.

However, Qian Chunlai obviously didn't care about the negative impact of this grain collection on him. Under the suppression of the Qian brothers, the voice of criticism within the Qian family was finally suppressed. Only on the second day of the complete grain tax collection in tuqiu village, the grain tax in tuyuan village was paid in full.

This time, Qian Chunlai finally became a popular candidate for the external disciple of the shaking Tianzong in wasteland town. It is said that he also received the support of a direct son of the Xiong family, who is also an external disciple of the shaking Tianzong.

The cultivation world is generally in a state of shortage of cultivation resources, but cultivation itself is a process of not advancing or falling back. Therefore, crops that can produce large-scale, high-yield and short cycle, such as Linggu, Lingmai and Lingdao, have become the most commonly used thing for most low-level monks to assist cultivation and improve their accomplishments.

After spiritual cultivation reaches a certain level, planting spiritual valley itself is not for food and clothing, but for at least maintaining their cultivation, which will not decline when cultivation resources are scarce. Therefore, almost all spiritual cultivation farmers will be so persistent in owning their own spiritual field.

Take one stone Spirit Valley as an example. It's only the value of a few jade coins. However, if you use a few jade coins to cultivate, you will exhaust the spiritual power contained in it in a few days at most. In these days, the monk's accomplishments may even be improved. However, after you use jade coins? Because you can't supplement enough spiritual power for a long time, the monk's accomplishments will begin to decline, or even decline all the way The refund is not as good as the original cultivation.

But if these jade coins were exchanged for a stone Spirit Valley, perhaps the monk's accomplishments could not be significantly improved by eating the Spirit Valley, but at least within two or three months before the Spirit Valley was eaten, the monk could keep his accomplishments from declining!

This is why ordinary friars often attach importance to Linggu on jade coins!

For the old spiritual cultivator who was forced to death in tuyuan village, after passing through the peak of his prime of life, his cultivation has not only lost the possibility of further development, but also because his body began to decline, if you want to keep your cultivation from declining, you may need to supplement more spiritual Valley than an adult.

The brother Qian Chunlai forcibly took away the only spiritual Valley in his hands, which will only accelerate the aging of his body, the decline of cultivation faster, and the time of death will be greatly shortened. Therefore, he will finally find his shortsightedness.

A few days after the grain tax was handed over, Yang Tiangang's mood still didn't improve. He had a gloomy face all day, which scared Yang Junping and Yang Junxin's brother and sister to hide.

Yang Junshan found Han Xiumei and asked, "Mom, dad is still worried about the external disciples of shaking Tianzong?"

In Yang Junshan's opinion, it's a good thing that Yang Tiangang didn't become an external disciple of the shake Tianzong. Although the shake Tianzong is powerful, it's just a huge boat about to sink on the sea. Instead of becoming an external disciple, he has got rid of his relationship with the shake Tianzong. Maybe he can escape a disaster in the future.

Han Xiumei sighed and said, "some words are just for outsiders. Based on your father's original credit, there is no need to collect food taxes. The real reason why your father can't become an inner disciple is because of your uncle!"

"Your uncle was accepted as an inner disciple by the shake Tianzong because he reported the contribution of the red rust original stone. Since the Yang family has already sent out an inner disciple this time, neither the shake Tianzong itself nor the various forces in Yu County who strive to become a disciple of the shake Tianzong want the Yang family to occupy another number of outer disciples, and I'm afraid there are voices of opposition within the Yang family!"

When Yang Junshan saw his father, Yang Tiangang was half lying on a rattan chair smoking and reading. Yang Junshan went over and looked. He found that Yang Tiangang was looking at a Atlas of low-level spirit grass, which not only drew very realistic patterns, but also noted more detailed instructions next to it.

Yang Junshan thought and said, "Dad, our Zhongpin Lingtian hasn't decided what to plant yet?"

Yang Tiangang gave a "well" and said: "You have got the seeds of saffron, enough to plant one cent of the holy land; your uncle also promised to help get a batch of seeds of ChiYan grass, and you can almost plant one cent of the holy land; now there is only the last cent of the holy land. I don't know what to plant. You happen to have brought back the inferior fairy elm heart from Baique mountain, and the three inferior fairy spirits you got from hunting the giant locust king this time The pen jade coin is wondering whether to use the jade coin to buy a batch of lingcao seeds, but I haven't thought about buying any seeds. "

Yang Junshan turned over the manual of lingcao on the table, found a manual and said, "how about planting this?"

Yang Tiangang looked down and wondered, "strange taste fruit? It's not difficult to find this seed, but what's the use of planting this thing? Although this thing can be regarded as the spiritual grass of the lower level of the Dharma, few people use the fruit. Only some folk pills can be used when refining, and they can't sell much!"

Yang Junshan said with a smile, "maybe it will suddenly be useful in the future!"

Seeing Yang Tiangang's suspicious eyes, Yang Junshan lied casually and said: "I saw that the friars of Sirius door were wantonly collecting this kind of spiritual grass in Quwu mountain. It seems that they need a lot of strange fruits to refine some new pills. I heard that Sirius door has been purchased at a high price in Zhangjun County!"

Yang Tiangang waved his hand and said, "that's not good. Sirius is buying this thing, not shaking Tianzong. Who will I plant it and sell it to?"

"Isn't there a secret way in Quwu mountain? Dad, you can have a look. It's not too far to go to Zhangjun anyway. It's not easy to get in and out of Zhangjun with your cultivation in wurenjing!"

Yang Tiangang impatiently waved his hand and said, "later, anyway, it's not urgent now!"

At this time, Yang Junshan seemed to think of something and said, "by the way, Dad, speaking of Quwu mountain, the child remembered another thing. Do you remember the valley where I told you I met locusts? There seems to be a source of evil spirit in the valley!"

"What?" Yang Tiangang suddenly jumped up from the rattan chair. The rattan chair couldn't stand his strength and suddenly fell apart. Yang Tiangang didn't even look at it. He stared at Yang Junshan and said, "what do you say, the source of evil Qi? You know the source of evil Qi!"

With a smile, Yang Junshan described the scene of locusts fighting for food when the source of evil Qi appeared in the valley. At the same time, he also guessed that the source of evil Qi seemed to be intermittent. I don't know whether Sirius gate had found the source of evil Qi by monitoring the locusts in the Valley.

Yang Tiangang was already happy. He couldn't sit still. As he walked, he said, "I'm going to Quwu mountain. If it's really like what you said, I'll be rewarded when I come back!"

Yang Junshan hurriedly followed up and said, "Dad, there's another thing I didn't tell you!"

Seven days after Yang Tian went to Quwu mountain, the sky of the whole wasteland town became gloomy, followed by a torrential rain. This was another five or six days. Several streams in the West Mountain had become inclined channels for mountain torrents, and Qinshui also soared all the way, almost to the edge of the overtopping embankment.

Yang Junshan looked anxiously at the rain outside the house. If it went on like this, there would be another flood immediately after the giant locust disaster!
