Chapter 350

Under the gloomy sky, the Qin, Wei, and Jiang families just ran into the valley, and what came toward them was a burst of sword energy like the collapse of a mountain.

Almost in the blink of an eye, they understood one thing, which is why the Wang family member who showed the way had such a look.

In an instant, the raindrops vaporized and steamed up endless white mist.

Ji You came with his sword tilted, flew to cut the sword, and the strong sword energy cut out countless ripples in the air, and also took away their storage gourds...

Splash, splash—

The falling rain gradually began to become dense, and the night also slowly surged up.

The carriage began to enter a bumpy section, and while shaking, Zhuo Zhuo Wanqiu woke up from her sleep.

She gently rubbed her eyes, subconsciously looked at Ji You's direction, found no one, and couldn't help but support her body: "Teacher Cao, where is my Young Master?"

"Went out to work."

"?"

Not long after, the carriage shook slightly.

Ji You returned to the carriage, his body still carrying the un-faded aura and sword intent, and the storage gourd on his waist was already crooked.

The customers were very cooperative, especially the last three families; they knew what to do as soon as the sword was shown, so it didn't take much effort.

This is the life he originally longed for, hardworking and brave, relying on his own ability to eat.

His shaking when returning to the carriage also woke up others, such as Wen Zhengxin, the Lu sisters who slept later, Ban Ban Yangshu, etc., who couldn't help but look over.

In the vision, Ji You's eyebrows lifted slightly, his expression pleasant and natural, as happy as a child who had just robbed the road.

"What did you rob?"

"Two Li family inherited secret techniques, and more than a hundred storage gourds, a tower, and some odds and ends."

Cao Cao Jingsong's mouth twitched, thinking to himself, truly a peerless reckless bandit.

But this also shows that from five years ago until now, this wicked disciple of his has never thought about living in peace with the families.

He is still like when he just came out of Yuyang County, feeling that families and Immortal Sects are tumors, looking forward to those families suffering, or even perishing.

So he had no psychological burden when he robbed the road.

And as his combat power gets stronger and stronger, those families he targeted will probably have a harder and harder time.

Under the night, Ji You's eyes were bright gold, a bit unfinished, and he left the carriage many times before leaving Central State and entering Fengzhou.

This flying carriage has become a mobile bandit den, gradually heading north with the stars moving, and crossed the Fengzhou border at noon the next day.

"They all say Fengzhou is the most barren among the nine states, I didn't expect it to be quite good to live in."

"It is indeed good, and the scenery is also very beautiful."

After the loss of You and Yun states, Fengzhou received a large number of refugees.

And besides refugees, there are also some families who took advantage of the Northern Border buffer and fled here, such as the Lan family and Bian family of Youzhou, and the Xiang family branch and Yue family of Yunzhou.

Among the nine states, Fengzhou is the most barren; many people have known this since childhood, but after truly coming here and seeing the boundless cultivated land and the newly repaired buildings, they realized what Fengzhou has developed into over the years.

Especially the mental outlook of the people on the street, not at all like the exhaustion and lack of vitality in the states where they were.

These families lived here for a few days, gradually recovered from the exhaustion of fleeing, and began to think about the next step.

Because their homes were broken, they now have nothing.

Whether it is spirit stones or grain, it is difficult to continue.

However, Fengzhou has a lot of grain storage and many spirit stone reserves, so they know where to solve it.

Autumn day after light rain, the chill gradually deepened.

A group of family heads led by the Lan family ancestor came to the mansion of the Fengzhou government.

"The invasion of the barbarian and demon races this time is truly a disaster for our nine states. At this time, we should naturally share the same hatred and be consistent with the outside world. I know that Fengzhou has a lot of grain storage and has also hoarded a large number of Snow Region demon stones. It is time to take them out."

The white-haired Lan family head looks at the state governor He Zhang, his tone steady and majestic without anger.

He Zhang cups his hands after hearing this: "What the immortal said is very true, but there is not much grain in the hands of the small person, which is really stretched."

"Nonsense, your Fengzhou is far in the north, and there are no cultivation families. You haven't suffered the disaster of the corpse tide. The autumn harvest ended a few days ago. Isn't a large amount of grain stored in the warehouse?"

The Lan family head leans on the table and opens his mouth: "The demon race and barbarian race seem to only covet You and Yun states, but when they completely occupy them, do you think they won't have ideas about other states? Fengzhou borders Yunzhou; without us, how can you guard it?"

He Zhang purses his lips, his eyebrows frown tightly, revealing a look of embarrassment.

"Let the old man make the decision. Leave 40% of the grain for the people, and we will take the rest. Mortals don't need spirit stones, so don't leave them. What do you think?"

After the Lan family head finishes speaking, he looks at the family heads who came with them.

Several family heads around cup their hands after hearing the sound: "After all, it is a special period, and some things cannot be required too much. This matter is all up to the Lan family head, and we have no objections."

The Lan family head nods and then looks at He Zhang, changing into a kind face: "Don't leave all 40% of the grain to the Fengzhou people. After all, refugees still need to be saved. We will also send people to help with disaster relief. This matter will be left to you."

"Reporting to the immortal, I cannot make the decision on this matter."

"You are a state governor, how can you not make the decision on saving refugees?"

He Zhang lowers his head and bows: "What the small person said is not refugees, but grain and spirit stones. I really cannot make the decision on this matter."

The Lan family head lifts his head slightly: "I am making the decision on this matter, you don't need to worry, just do as I say."

"But the small person doesn't have the warehouse key, and I don't know where the spirit stone reserves are. The annual grain release and spirit stone sales are all decided by the opposite side."

Hearing this, the family heads can't help but look at each other, their eyebrows frowning slightly.

Opposite the state governor's mansion is the Ji stronghold; they had already seen it when they came.

The Lan family head sighs for a moment after hearing this: "Ji You was seriously injured and comatose in the expedition, and his life or death is unknown. Your Fengzhou now lacks a person in charge. The old man is temporarily making decisions for you, so as not to let you mess up, so this matter is decided, go prepare."

"This..."

"He Zhang, you must be clear about your identity. The old man has practiced for a hundred years. Although the Dao heart is quiet, sometimes I will be angry."

He Zhang is helpless, and can only cup his hands and nod.

At this time, outside the front hall, the three stewards of the state governor's mansion are outside the door, listening to the movement in the hall and can't help but frown slightly.

"These monsters and ghosts, they can't guard their own ancestral land, and actually fled to our Fengzhou to act as blessings."

"Eh, you can be quieter, Qiu Ye said that dealing with cultivators should be cautious, their hearing is much stronger than ordinary people."

"They did it shamelessly and won't let people say it. When can Fengzhou be their turn to make decisions?"

Several people whisper, and suddenly hear the sound of carriage wheels coming from outside the door.

So they look up and see a carriage entering their sight, slowly stopping in front of the Ji stronghold opposite.

Seeing this, several people are stunned for a moment, and then immediately stand up and walk toward the door.

On the stationary carriage, as the curtain is gently lifted, Ji You gets off the carriage.

This journey was diligent and conscientious, and the harvest was abundant, which can be considered worthy of the "loan word" on his plaque.

And the Lu sisters also follow everyone off the carriage, then continuously look at the house with the words "Ji Stronghold" written on it, their eyes full of curiosity.

They are also coming to Fengzhou for the first time, and have already seen the boundless cultivated land on the way, and also seen the people living and working in peace and contentment, and have to say that it is very different from the impression.

"Is this the Young Master's house?"

"Mm, it took three days to arrive, everyone go in and rest for a while."

The Lu sisters immediately step onto the steps after hearing this, which makes Ding Yao and Zhuo Zhuo Wanqiu look at each other.

They remember that their Master Ling Jian seemed to be like this when she came for the first time.

Kuang Cheng and Wei Rui also enter the house side by side.

They had been here once before and were no strangers to this, but they had a sense of nostalgia for returning to their hometown.

Followed by Cao Cao Jingsong, Wen Zhengxin, and Ban Ban Yangshu.

They hadn't seen Pei Pei Ruyi for a long time, and started shouting as soon as they entered the courtyard.

Ji You is also about to step into the house at this time, but before he can step in, he hears footsteps coming from behind.

"Young Master Ji!"

"?"

The steward of the Fengzhou government runs over in a hurry: "Young Master Ji, something happened."

Ji You frowns slightly: "What happened?"

"A batch of immortal refugees came to Fengzhou, all from Yunzhou and Youzhou, saying they wanted grain and spirit stones, and also saying that this is a special period and we should share the same hatred, and also saying that the demon race will come to Fengzhou later, and they can help protect it. My master is in the hall and dare not refuse."

"Robbery reached my head?"

Ji You mumbles, follows the three stewards to the Fengzhou government.

He didn't let the steward make a sound, but let them stay in the courtyard, then lowered his head and walked into the front hall, leaning against the door on the left.

The Lan family head just asked He Zhang to take out the Fengzhou grain book and the spirit stone inventory account book, and after reading it, he lifted his head: "Is the spirit stone exchange between Fengzhou and the demon race still continuing?"

"Reporting to the immortal, after the corpse tide occurred, two batches came, and then it was cut off."

"What a pity."

The Lan family head can't help but mumble after hearing this.

Fengzhou's spirit stone inventory is indeed not small, but it will be used up one day.

So in his view, if this trading route hadn't been broken, maybe they could have exchanged grain for more spirit stones.

He just looked, and Fengzhou's grain production is truly amazing, far exceeding his expectations.

They couldn't finish eating even if they threw away half of the 60% grain, and if it was stored for too long, it might sprout.

But let's take it one step at a time. Losing the ancestral land and still having grain and spirit stones is already an excellent result.
