At the county government office in Mengyu County, when Xu Jing met Chen Jizhen, she saw him closing his eyes to rest. Since he was seriously injured and his cultivation had stagnated, Chen Jizhen had aged extremely badly over the years.
"Teacher!" Xu Jing called softly.
Chen Jizhen raised his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Is it because of the Yang family's affairs? I heard that the Yang family is now moving the households from Huangtu Town to Huangyuan Town and establishing many villages?"
Xu Jing reported: "That's right. This is why this disciple is here. I think Yang's move may have a deeper meaning."
In the previous episode, due to the invasion of the Tianlang Sect and the Kailing Sect, the power of the monks in Mengyu County was greatly damaged. Most of the survivors moved to the two towns of Huangqiu and Huangtu that had not fallen. Even Huangshan Town was destroyed due to the conflict between the Shaotian Sect and the Tiantian Sect. The Wolf Sect was in a tug-of-war and few people moved there. After that, the Kailing Sect returned to Huangsha Town, and the Yang family and the Shaking Sky Sect regained their lost ground. Those monks who had surrendered to the Kailing Sect but had no time to withdraw were liquidated again. Such a wasteland The two towns, Wilderness and Wilderness, have become sparsely populated places. Even the county seat has gone to Shiting.
Afterwards, although both the Yang family and the Shaking Sky Sect tried to relocate the population of the two towns back, these monk families who moved back were unable to fully develop the two towns of Wasteland and Wilderness.
Chen Jizhen asked casually: "Tell me, how do the Yang family do it?"
Xu Jing said: "This time the Yang family is semi-forcibly relocating the villagers, and the relocated villagers involve almost all villages in Huangtu Town."
Xu Jing paused and then said: "This relocation is not based on the village or family power, but randomly selects a number of households in each village to relocate based on proportion. Usually there are dozens of Zhang family households. There are more than ten households of the Li family, several households of the Wang family, etc., and then they randomly mix and live in a village in Huangyuan Town. Nowadays, a village in Huangyuan Town may have more than ten different surnames, and even the same surname. Not necessarily from the same village or clan.”
"Oh," Chen Jizhen's spirit was shaken, and he said, "Does this mean that the villagers in the villages in Huangtu Town will be willing to migrate?"
"What can we do if we are not willing to give in? The Yang family has made it clear that they want to weaken the foundation of the families in each village. But now that the Yang family is so powerful, these villages do not dare to go against the decision of the two real Yang family members even if they unite."
Xu Jing paused and continued: "What's more, over the years, I have to say that the Yang family has been pretty good to the villages in Huangtu Town and has a very high prestige. More importantly, the five newly built villages in Huangtu Town by the Yang family have almost Each one has a Dharma-level protective formation around it, which greatly guarantees their safety. What's more, the terrain of Wasteland Town is originally flat, and the area of spiritual fields is among the best in the entire Mengyu County. Most of the relocated villagers can be allocated an area larger than the original village. A larger spiritual field, these are all ways to eliminate resentment. "
Chen Jizhen nodded and said: "It is indeed a good method, but you are not just here to talk about these things, right?"
"Teacher Mingjian," Xu Jing first flattered him and then continued: "The disciple believes that the Yang family also used this move to exclude dissidents, because a large number of villagers mixed and then dispersed, so many relatives and friends lost contact. According to the disciple As we know, no less than thirty spiritual farmers and even martial monks have disappeared during the migration process. No one is alive or dead, and no corpses are seen. And these people are all loyal to the sect. The disciples suspect that they have been killed by Yang. They were secretly executed, and most of the new villages in Wasteland Town are currently photographed by Yang’s people.
Take the position of village leader. "
Chen Jizhen glanced at her, and Xu Jing's head lowered involuntarily. Chen Jizhen said, "If you have any ideas, just tell me."
Xu Jing gritted her teeth and said: "Teacher, why do you want to give up suppressing the Yang family? What a good opportunity this is. Even if Zhang and Liu are seriously injured, the strength of our sect is far superior to the Yang family. As long as we can subdue Yang clan, then our sect can completely control the land of the three counties. Yu County is already vast, and the land of the three counties is almost equivalent to most of the other counties in Yuzhou. With the support of the land of these three counties, our Shaotian Sect can at least keep up with us. The three sects of Yuxiao, Yujian, and Tanxi will have a much shorter time to restore their former glory."
"Okay," Chen Jizhen waved his hand, interrupted Xu Jing's words, and said, "Have you seen the Yang family's treasure formation in Xishan?"
Seeing Xu Jing's slightly astonished expression, Chen Jizhen's tone actually sounded sad, saying: "Even if we want to suppress the Yang family, the most we can do is take back Wasteland Town. The Yang family in Xishan has already laid a foundation. It will not be easy. It can be destroyed, unless the sect is willing to take a big risk and attack Xishan Village with all its strength, but now that the sect is surrounded by enemies, it can be said that the sect is walking on thin ice, who dares to take the risk? "
With that said, Chen Jizhen taught her a communication talisman on the table and said: "Your eyes only see your own sect, but you don't really understand the overall situation. Take a look at the message on this communication talisman!"
Xu Jing took the communication talisman suspiciously, her spiritual sense penetrated into it, and her face soon became a little pale.
"Today's cultivation world can be affected by a single move. There are demon cultivators gathering in Nanxuan Swamp in Chenyu County. This is not a secret. It's just that the Shaking Sky Sect and Tanxi Sect have their own scruples, and they both despised the demon cultivator in the swamp. The snake demon, now calling himself 'King Taixuan', is already a great demon of the Tiangang Realm. What is even more terrifying is that this demon has unknowingly gathered two of the Jugang Realm and no less than three of the Huagang Realm. If monks from outside the region help, raising tigers will cause trouble!”
Xu Jing's eyes flickered and she said: "The sect wants to deal with the foreign monks in Nanxuan Marsh first? But how can the strength of Nanxuan Marsh be comparable to that of the Yang family in Xishan!"
"But Nanxuan Swamp is also not the enemy of my Shaotian Sect family," Chen Jizhen said with a smile: "Do you still remember the attack on Senior Nephew Liu?"
Xu Jing's eyes were blurred and she said: "Disciple knows, I heard that it is a monk from outside the Nanxuan Swamp area pretending to be a disciple of the Tanxi Sect."
"Yes, by pretending, I was able to easily bypass Master Nephew Liu!"
Chen Jizhen sighed: "This is the first time I have heard of the Phantom Clan. They can actually pretend to be human monks without being noticed. It is shocking to think about it. This is just a monk sent by him to frame the fault." , If you sneak into the sect as a spy, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Xu Jing took a breath after hearing this, her expression kept changing, and she heard Chen Jizhen say: "Don't worry, since you already know that the Huan Clan is coming, then it is naturally because you have the means to distinguish it, not to mention that the Huan Clan doesn't want to disguise itself. It’s easy to be ignorant of things, and it’s enough to be deceived for a while. As time goes by, there will always be flaws. I have suggested that the sect conduct a large-scale internal investigation. It is not easy for the Phantom Clan to infiltrate this sect. "
Xu Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's great."
At the border between Huangtu Town and Huangyuan Town, Yang Junshan looked at the migrating villagers on the road from a distance, his eyes wandering and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Junshan, this migration has already begun.
It's almost done, this is the last batch. "
Su Baozhang came from a distance and said, although he looked slightly tired, he still had a hint of relief on his face after completing a major event.
Yang Junshan nodded and said with a smile: "This time I have Brother Lao Baozhang."
