Immortality Martial Arts: Starting from the Sword Drawing Technique
Chapter 98 One thousand taels of silver!
The war is over and the beast tide has subsided!
But there were corpses all over the city walls and under the city walls, and the scene was like purgatory on earth.
There were countless casualties in the entire Changsheng Town, with only one-third of the warriors left.
The old, weak, women and children were slightly better off. They were doing logistics, transportation, bandaging and treatment in the city. There were fewer ferocious beasts that broke into the city, and less than half of them were killed or injured.
After the war, mourning was everywhere, and miserable faces and moans and screams could be seen everywhere.
Many people are digging through the bodies, looking for relatives, or... looking for belongings.
Moving corpses is a huge process. The few remaining city guards and policemen organized their efforts with tired faces, sorting the corpses, and those who claimed them would register their identities and receive pensions in the future.
As for the unclaimed ones, most of them were scattered warriors, so they could only burn them on the spot and dig pits and bury them to prevent the spread of the plague.
As for the carcasses of beasts, these are valuable items and will naturally not be left in the wilderness. They are also collected and slaughtered overnight.
The whole city was busy, but no one had a smile on their face. Most of them looked sad, tired, and numb.
This person has passed away, but the living must continue to live!
One night, the sound of funerals could be heard endlessly, the city was deserted, paper money was flying in the streets and alleys, and the sound of crying came from every house. Those who heard it were sad, and those who saw it shed tears!
The whole town was deserted. There were only a few pedestrians on the street, passing by in a hurry, without any communication with each other.
Lin Bei was sitting in the house, and the sound of crying came from next door.
The three fathers and sons of the Li family went to one of them again. Sadly, Li Fei, who had the most potential, died.
He died in the beast wave, which made Lao Li Tou grief-stricken.
In the blacksmith shop, only half of the blacksmiths were left, and their faces were sad but also a little lucky.
Congratulations on surviving!
Jiang Dali, on the other hand, was bedridden due to his injuries and escaped the disaster, leaving his son to take care of him.
All we can say is that misfortune lies on the back of blessing, and blessing lies on misfortune!
Destiny is a mysterious thing that no one can truly comprehend.
After visiting the two most familiar places, Lin Bei came to Yang's Medical Center.
The Yang's Medical Center was extremely lively with people coming and going, and patients even lined up like a long queue.
Doctor Yang Xing was extremely busy and was treating an injured patient.
As a doctor, he naturally did not go to the front line to fight against the beast tide, but has been doing rescue work at the rear.
Lin Bei simply had nothing to do, so he stayed at the hospital to help, saving lives and healing the wounded while improving his medical skills.
His current medical skills are almost catching up with Dr. Yang Xing's. After a while, he can consider searching for knowledge related to alchemy.
…
Time passed, and on the third day, many merchants brought batches of healing medicines and poured into Changsheng Town. Before leaving, they also took away cartloads of beast corpses.
Two more days passed.
Someone knocked on Lin Bei's door.
"Haha, little brother, do you still remember me? I told you that I would treat you to a nice drink!"
The city guard commander smiled boldly, carrying good wine and meat, and stepped into Lin Bei's home.
"My little brother is really a dragon among men. At such a young age, he can already dominate the battlefield and defeat the dragon-veined beasts. It's admirable!"
The commander of the city guard did not hesitate to praise him and expressed his feelings from the bottom of his heart.
"I really can't believe that such a hidden dragon is hidden in a small shoal like our Changsheng Town."
The city guard commander drank a bowl of wine, smacked his lips, and gave Lin Bei a thumbs up.
Lin Bei is really too young. He can match the combat power of Dragon Vein Realm at such a young age. This potential, if given some time, may not be much worse than that of the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
"The commander-in-chief has given me the award."
Lin Bei was humble and polite, so he didn't feel offended.
The commander of the city guard, a man with a military background, has a bold spirit.
Lin Bei was quite happy to deal with such people, as long as they weren't looking for trouble.
He picked up a piece of exotic animal meat and put it into his mouth. While chewing it, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
After imitating the commander of the city guard, he slapped his mouth, and then asked: "What is the purpose of the commander coming here this time?"
"Hey, it's polite to call me Commander. How much older are you, Brother Yu? If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Cui!"
The city guard commander waved his hand.
His real name is Cui Shanhe, which is rustic and has a hint of grandeur.
"Then I'll call you Brother Cui."
Lin Bei was not polite and asked directly: "But I don't know why Brother Cui came here this time?"
Cui Shanhe drank another bowl of wine, put the bowl on the table, and then said more seriously: "I came here to visit. First of all, I want to thank my little brother for his rescue that day."
Lin Bei interrupted: "There is no need to thank you. Brother Cui bravely killed the enemy during the beast wave that day, which played a vital role in the entire battle."
"The reason I rescued you that day was not out of personal interest, but actually for the sake of the overall situation and my own safety."
Lin Bei told the truth.
The battle was fierce that day. If the city guard commander died, he would be surrounded by endless siege. Those old guys hiding in the guard group would not come to rescue him.
"That's what they say, but one code equals another, and the grace that saves you is the grace that saves you."
Cui Shanhe said seriously: "I, Cui Shanhe, will remember this kindness in my heart. If one day you need me, just give me your orders!"
He knew that the yellow and white thing on his body might not be able to repay the kindness, so he directly made a promise to Lin Bei.
There are five forces in Changsheng Town, namely the four major families and the city guards.
Among the four major families, except for the Lu family, where Mayor Lu Anbai belongs to, which is an upstart, the other three families have a history of nearly a hundred years.
The Lu family, under the leadership of the mayor Lu Anbai, can mobilize the resources of the Yamen agents and is considered the most powerful force.
In addition, there are the city guards.
This is an army specially equipped to prevent beast tides. It is not large in scale, but it can be regarded as half a regular army.
The power is probably about the same as that of the Lu family, and he is only under the jurisdiction of Lu Anbo in name, but in fact the other party can't control him at all.
Cui Shanhe, the commander of the City Guards, is its actual controller. With this power, it can be called the fifth force in Changsheng Town.
Therefore, his promise is worth thousands of dollars in Changsheng Town!
But Lin Bei disagreed. He felt that this kind of promise would be more cost-effective than giving him some silver directly.
However, now that he is not too short of money, he does not speak shamelessly.
"That's the second thing."
Before Lin Bei could speak, Cui Shanhe pondered for a moment and took out a stack of silver notes from his arms: "Here is one thousand taels of silver, your reward for this battle."
One thousand taels of silver!
Lin Bei looked at the banknotes on the table, feeling happy but not too surprised.
He fought bravely to kill the enemy, turned the tide, and killed so many strange beasts. His contribution was great, and he should be ranked first among them.
And these strange beasts were sold by the government to merchants.
Naturally, he has a part in this.
One thousand taels of silver should be almost the same.
After he killed everyone on the battlefield and showed his strength as the number one person in Changsheng Town, it was basically expected that Lu Anbai and Cui Shanhe would not be able to withhold the money.
Now it seems that it is indeed as he expected!
