Qingu also paid attention to the situation in Luzhou these days, but there was no harvest.
Is it true that the pirates were killed there?
Why are pirates so rampant that the court has done nothing?
Or Zeng family did not have an accident, just to scare the client, stimulate the client to say?
Qin Gu was more willing to believe in the latter.
Anyway, she had to go back and have a look.
Moreover, when you get there, you may be able to ask more from the population nearby.
After making up his mind, Qingu bought a lot of food and drink on the road, hired a donkey cart and rushed to Luzhou.
All the way south, although the time is getting closer to the deep winter, but the temperature is still gradually rising.
When Qin Gu saw that someone was sick, she would occasionally use her own medical skills. Although she didn't make much money, she managed to save the car fare and the meal. Some people were grateful to her, and her merits were worth earning.
There was no delay in walking and stopping, practicing, searching for information, and making ah Huan recover.
About a month later, one man and three dogs finally entered the boundary of Luzhou.
At the sight of a bleak, barren land, far and near houses can not see the appearance of human smoke.
It presents a desolate and dilapidated landscape.
After walking for a long distance, I didn't see a living person. There was a faint smell of blood and corruption in the air
Qin Gu's heart sank slowly.
When we arrived at the Zengjia compound, it was a courtyard of hundreds of houses. Although Zeng Guangsheng was the only one in the middle, there were as many as five or six hundred people in the Zeng family's heyday!
If you add the hired boatman and so on, it will be more.
Qingu stood on a hillside in the distance and looked at this side. With her strong eyesight, she could see the situation of Zeng's courtyard.
I thought I would see the same dilapidated scene as other places. I didn't expect that the house was in good condition, and there were people coming and going inside, just like what the client remembered.
What's going on?
Is it true that, as you guessed, there was no accident in the Zeng family, only to deceive the client and deliberately make up the case that the Zeng family was destroyed?
That's the best news.
In any case, for the sake of safety, Qingu did not wipe off the camouflage on his face and did not go directly to the door.
But take advantage of the night, change into dark clothes, covered with a scarf, and climb over the wall.
Now, after more than a month's cultivation, Qingu has entered the four levels of cultivation the day after tomorrow.
Although this speed is not as fast as before, it is mainly related to the physical quality of the client.
But now I can fly over the eaves and walk on the wall. I can also use my internal power to control the needle. In addition, it is easy to visit Zeng's home at night.
Qin Gu asked ah Huan to wait in situ After thinking about it, he said again: if you see someone coming, run to the hillside in the distance.
Qin Gu pointed to the black shadow in the night.
Ah Huan sobbed, I don't know if it understood or didn't understand.
In short, Qin Gu didn't want to see the last thing happen again.
After entering the Zeng's house, Qin Gu followed the memory of the client and first went to the courtyard where Zeng Guangsheng lived
Walking around and sensing something wrong, these people
It's very fishy and bloody.
Qin Gu's heart suddenly, if you can't just look at the appearance, which is really greasy.
Outside the yard, there were people standing guard everywhere, bright and dark.
Look at the breath of these people, they all belong to the master, and have reached the realm of the day after tomorrow!
We should know that Qin Gu only managed to reach the level of the day after tomorrow when he met one or two swordsmen. However, all the people on guard in this Yard have such accomplishments. It's not surprising that they are not surprised.
Fortunately, Qingu was a few grades higher than them. It was not discovered by these people because of its function of storing breath and medicinal powder.
However, Qingu did not dare to get too close.
Because she felt a more vigorous breath coming from the courtyard, maybe her accomplishments were higher than her.
The other party is so cautious and alert that it is easy to find out if it is too close.
Listen attentively, the people inside are discussing things.
Listen, Qin Gu felt his hair stand up one by one.
It turns out that what these people are discussing is a big trade in grain and ore.
It turns out that only half a year ago, Zeng family found an iron ore vein in luofengshan. The ore deposit is very large and the iron content is very high.
Knowing that it was impossible for the Zeng family to eat the ore vein, they wanted to admire the king of Pingyi, the husband of the client.
If Mu Chong is asked to mention it to the emperor again, he will be promoted in the eyes of the emperor. If he is taken seriously, his daughter will surely be in the spotlight Then the Zeng family is also proud.They can even win the mining rights, and then the Zeng family will not have to rely on the sea trade to survive After all, the emperor did not pay attention to maritime trade, nor did he pay attention to coastal defense. The tax burden was heavy, and he had to take great risks. It would be better if he could take the opportunity to transform.
But where did they know that before they could spread the news, they heard the story of Zeng's merchant ship encountering pirates.
Then the pirates took the opportunity to land, and they fought for a few days to drive them away.
This time, Zeng's family suffered heavy damage, and the surrounding fishermen were killed and injured.
He wrote to Pingyi palace to ask for support.
Not long after that, they really received a reply, saying that they would not worry and that they would send troops to reinforce them soon.
With the reply from the Pingyi palace, the Zeng family's confidence increased greatly.
After all, the two daughters of Zeng's family were married to the king of Pingyi, one of whom was a good wife and the other was a flat wife. It seems that it is still very beneficial.
How could they know that the letter was not in the hands of the king of Pingyi, but was stopped and then answered in the tone of King Pingyi.
The Zeng family was waiting for the support of the Imperial Army, so they did not organize the retreat.
Finally, the pirates' crazy counter attack
The Zeng family was destroyed.
Then those pirates once used their home as a stronghold to deal with the follow-up work while killing other nearby fishermen.
Turn this place completely into their base.
With the change of government, the peace advocated by those ministers and scholars has in fact acquiesced that this area has become a gathering place of pirates.
Now, what these people are talking about is that iron ore mining has been traded with neighboring countries.
In addition to the iron ore trade, there was salt and grain trading.
It was a Mongolian minister who was talking with the pirate leader this time. They are now hoarding a lot of food Because they are ready to deploy at the border to fight mu.
The two sides are negotiating the price and quantity.
