The System Has Just Awakened: Sword God Comes To Challenge

Chapter 132 The Weak are Prey to the Strong

Although Raging Fire Palace, Ghost Palace and other places are all south of Daming.

But it wasn't forces like Wudang and the Nujiao Gang that occupied the most affluent town in the south of the Yangtze River.

Rather, it is located in a north-south direction.

Moreover, several sects and even the Tianlong sect that has been destroyed are all close to Liyang City.

After all, they are third-rate forces, if not close, how can they be united?

Starting from the Daming Imperial City and arriving at the Liyang City, it only takes about four days.

Following the carriage slowly entered Liyang City.

Compared with the prosperity of the city seen along the way, although the city of Liyang is still crowded with people, most of the vendors and pedestrians on the street have a bit of sadness in their brows.

When he entered the Henglai Inn for a short rest, he looked at the distressed faces of the vendors below from the window sill.

Chu Tianhe couldn't help asking: "Why do the people in Liyang City look so sad?"

The voice came out, and Chu Changsheng on the side also glanced down and responded with a normal expression.

"——Fang Chengchi, if it can make the people suffer at that time, it is nothing more than two reasons of Rivers and Lakes and the imperial court."

And Huang Xuemei, who was next to her, said: "The Tianlong 423 faction has been wiped out, and the forces in the Fire Palace and the Ghost Palace have no control over them, so they started to act recklessly."

"From the second day after the Tianlong faction was destroyed, forces such as the Raging Fire Palace and the Ghost Palace began to collect protection fees from various merchants and street vendors in Liyang City."

"It even tripled the tax originally set by the Tianlong faction."

Although Rivers and Lakes and the imperial court are distinct, they are constantly connected.

Why sect forces want to continuously improve the status of own and the status of Rivers and Lakes is all because of benefits.

Among the five countries, every three years there will be a classification of sect forces.

Different levels of forces can be divided into different Realm cities according to the results of martial arts.

Then manage together with the court.

The imperial court dealt with the disputes among ordinary people, while the sect forces were in charge of the fight between Rivers and Lakes Practitioners.

Together to maintain law and order and ordinary people.

And the sect has contributed, and the sect can also share part of the annual tax collected by the city managed by the sect.

Coupled with the faction's own industry, the annual benefits are extremely considerable.

Otherwise, the Practitioner will also have to eat and drink.

If you have no money, you will all go to work in the fields, who has the mind to practice all day long?

This is why in many towns, the authority of the Rivers and Lakes power is stronger than the prestige of the local court officials.

After all, officials will still be transferred, but the Rivers and Lakes sect forces, unless they are wiped out.

Otherwise, it will always be here.

Proper local snake.

Naturally, in each town, whether the local people can live and work in peace and contentment depends on the actions of the local court and the forces of Rivers and Lakes.

Hearing what Huang Xuemei said, Chu Tianhe said in amazement: "I'll go, and double the tax collected by the Tianlong faction, the forces of the Fire Palace and the Ghost Palace are all crazy, right?"

"Aren't you worried that the people of Liyang City will go to Wudang, report the matter to Wudang, and then destroy them?"

In the south of Daming.

Among the Rivers and Lakes sects, Wudang and Nujiao Gang are the leaders.

It can be said that all the Rivers and Lakes sects in the south of Ming Dynasty are under the management of Wudang and Nujiao Gang.

This Liyang City, and even the original Tianlong Sect, respect Wudang.

If it is an ordinary Rivers and Lakes vendetta, even if it is an extermination, Wudang Sect will not intervene.

But if it is a fish and meat common people, with Wudang Sect's style of work, they will definitely not stand by and watch.

As long as Wudang's approval is obtained, other nearby forces can directly replace this fierce camp and the destruction of the besieged camp.

If it's serious, people from Wudang and the Nujiao Gang can do it themselves.

Otherwise, if they were all like Liyang City, how would the people survive (bddb)?

Daming was probably already cold.

Where can it last?

Regarding this, Huang Xuemei said in a deep voice: "I don't know about this, I also heard that someone wanted to go to Wudang to report the matter here and ask Wudang to be the master.

"But until now, there has been no news."

Hearing what Huang Xuemei said, Chu Xiao said in a low voice: "There are some things that can't be done just by thinking about them."

"Not to mention that Wudang Sect is far away from Liyang City."

"As a Rivers and Lakes sect, how difficult is it to do something to prevent the news from getting out?"

Ordinary people dare not even offend the imperial court.

Let alone someone from Rivers and Lakes.

Once provoked, it is not uncommon to draw a sword in anger and be killed brutally.

As long as they can get by, who wants to provoke such an enemy and get angry?

This is also the main tone of this world.

The Weak are Prey to the Strong.

Hearing Chu Xiao's words, Chu Tianhe suddenly thought of the Wei family.

If it weren't for Wei Changkong and the Chu family's careful Zhou Xuan and keeping a low profile all these years.

And Chu Xiao was born again.

I am afraid that the Chu family will also be wiped out in the dust of history under the oppression of the Wei family.

As for the members of the Chu family, there are one by one.

I'm afraid the end will not be good.

Thinking of this, when Chu Tianhe looked at the vendors below, he sighed inexplicably in his heart.

Raging Fire Palace is located about twenty miles away from the eastern suburbs of Liyang City.

At the speed of the carriage, the time it takes is not too long.

And when the carriage gradually approached the Fire Palace, the originally clear sky around here also gradually darkened.

Dark clouds filled the air.

With a sense of imminent rain.

And when the speed of the carriage slowed down, it stopped at the gate of the Raging Fire Palace impartially.

At the gate of the Raging Fire Palace, two gatekeeper disciples wearing blood-red exercise uniforms looked at the carriage, stepped forward and asked in an aggressive tone: "This is the Raging Fire Palace, who are you?"

However, facing the words of the two Raging Fire Palace disciples, neither Chu Tianhe nor Chu Changsheng even looked at them.

After stopping the carriage, the two quickly opened the curtain of the carriage while getting out of the carriage.

After Huang Xuemei and Xue Qianxun got off the carriage, the two women walked off the carriage facing Chu Xiao while bowing.

Putting his eyes on the three big characters "Fire Palace" written in cinnabar, Chu Xiao said to Huang Xuemei: "Go!"

Hearing this, after nodding heavily, Huang Xuemei handed the Snow Song Sword in her hand to Xue Qianxun, and then hugged the piano box herself.

Ps: There are two more chapters to come!.
