Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain

010. The county government conspiracy

In the lobby of Zhaoyang County Government Office, as before in the Sacred Heart House, County Honorable Ren Feng sat in the main seat with a gloomy expression. Tie Budong, Tan Gang, and Gao Cheng sat at attention below, with not only gloomy expressions, but also a tinge in their pupils.

A hint of panic.

Ren Feng lowered his head and glanced around the three people. Seeing the fear in their pupils, a sinister smile appeared on his face and he spoke.

"That's what it means. Although I don't want to admit it, with the Sacred Heart in the middle, the energy emanating from Hou Yuxiao's body is indeed Gang Qi!"

"It's impossible, it's impossible. How old is that little beast? A twenty-five-year-old Gang Qi realm warrior, even a disciple of a major force, doesn't have such talent!"

Tie Budong could not stop shaking his head while denying Ren Feng's words. Tan Gang and Gao Cheng, who were standing next to him, did not speak, but nodded in agreement.

"So, you three think I am lying?"

Ren Feng's sinister tone caused the expressions of the three of them to change, and they all shook their heads hastily, but deep down they couldn't believe what he said, so they could only remain silent.

Looking at the expressions on the faces of the three people, Ren Feng knew that these people were not so easy to fool, so he sighed and said: "Of course, seeing the Gang Qi does not mean that he has broken through the Gang Qi realm.

This coagulation of blood into Gang Qi does not happen overnight. If you want to completely transform the blood and Qi in your body into Gang Qi, even for some disciples of prefecture-level powerful forces who have the Yuan Gang Secret Realm, it will take at least a month, let alone those of us who can only use the Yuan Gang Pearl.

of ordinary people.

Back then, I met the most outstanding senior brother in the outer sect of the Holy Cult, and it took me six Yuan Gang Pearls and three months of hard training to complete this process.

Therefore, with the Sacred Heart in the middle, Hou Yuxiao may also be showing off his aura on purpose, hoping to frighten me and the three of you!"

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Tie Budong even stepped forward and said: "My lord, you know that that little beast is playing tricks on you, why do you let him be so arrogant? As long as your lord takes the lead, the three of us will follow closely."

, kill all the Hou clan."

Ren Feng glanced sideways at Tie Budong and snorted coldly: "That's easy to say. Is that kid just making a fool of himself? There are two theories. If he really breaks through the Gang Qi realm, I think I can defeat him.

Even if I try to take him down with one and a half moves, it is impossible to offend a Gang Qi realm warrior for no reason. I can no longer be a county magistrate. Can you be responsible?

In recent years, the Hou family has paid a lot of taxes to the county government, and they also respect me quite a lot. From the beginning to the end, the Hou family has only targeted the three of you, and it has nothing to do with me.

Furthermore, no matter how arrogant Hou Yuxiao is, after all, he is still my adopted son, Ren Feng. Why should I sacrifice my own future to help you deal with my adopted son?"

After hearing these words, Tiebudong and the other two people felt their hearts skip a beat and looked at each other with a look of understanding on their faces.

After Ren Feng finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip, looked at his nose and heart, and said no more.

He said it all for this reason. If the three of them still don't understand, then their lives will really be in vain.

The three people below did not speak, but only looked at each other for a moment. Tiebudong gritted his teeth, walked respectfully to Ren Feng, and bowed: "It's all my fault for not thinking carefully. I haven't made it clear yet. If you are the master,

If I can help the Feiying Sect get rid of the Hou clan, I, the Feiying Sect, will use 20% of our income every year from now on to honor you!"

"The same goes for the Green Wolf Gang."

"Just like Happy Forest."

Although Tan Gang and Gao Cheng felt extremely hurt in their hearts, they still followed Tie Budong and expressed their stance together.

The Holy Sect of Rakshasa governs Yongzhou, and taxes are collected uniformly according to the level of power.

Generally speaking, the higher the power level, the lower the taxes collected. On the one hand, this is a recognition of the powerful power. On the other hand, the more powerful the power, the higher the income. Even if the indicator is lower, the tax will be lower.

If it is rich enough, it can also play a role in the Holy Religion.

For example, the four low-income groups in Zhaoyang County have a tax payment target of 40% of the annual income. The four similar groups have similar annual income, which is about 40,000 taels of silver. 40% is equivalent to 16,000 taels.

Two achievements are eight thousand taels.

Looking at it this way, you can understand why Tiebudong and the other two were so distressed.

The total annual income was only 40,000 taels, and this alone reduced it to 20%. The key is that regardless of the 20%, they had to pay Ren Feng three to five thousand taels every year, but this time it was simply worse.

But thinking that Hou Yuxiao, that little beast, was very likely to break through and become a martial artist in the Gang Qi realm, the three of them were heartbroken, but they decided to pay the money.

Completely opposite to their pained expressions, the county official Ren Feng almost burst into laughter at this moment. He stepped forward and helped the three of them up and said: "What are the three of you talking about? I, Ren Feng, have been ordered by the Holy Cult to supervise

Zhaoyang, now there are madmen like Hou Yuxiao in the county who are causing harm to the village, and even if the three of them don’t talk about it, I, Ren Feng, will vow to eliminate the evil for the people!”

This old fox just said that Hou Yuxiao is his adopted son!

"What's more, this dog is still my adopted son. It is my duty to get rid of him."

The three of them looked at Ren Feng's hypocritical appearance, and naturally they would not expose it. Tie Budong stepped forward and asked, "How are you going to deal with that little beast?"

Ren Feng's face darkened again, as if recalling the scene where he was humiliated in the Sacred Heart Center, there was a burst of anger in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Just wait and see, the protector sent by the county will be here soon, then

The protector had an old relationship with me in the early years, so it would be easy for him to help out and deal with Hou Yuxiao easily!"

"Defender? Our protector from Zhaoyang County is coming!" Tiebudong suddenly showed a sad look in his eyes, and Tan Gang and Gaocheng next to him also showed a hint of displeasure.

The three provinces and eight prefectures in Yongzhou are all under the rule of the Rakshasa Holy Cult. The Holy Cult's governance method is relatively extensive. Administrative officers are set up to supervise the regions in prefectures, counties, and counties, and wardens are set up to supervise all officials in the state.

Among them, county magistrates such as Ren Feng, and even the county magistrates and palace lords above them all belong to local administrators. The warden also corresponds to three levels, namely, one for the county to teach and protect the law, and one for the governor.

The county protects the heavenly king, and the town teaches Jialan.

Originally, Zhaoyang County didn't know whether it was because it was too weak or something, but the government had never sent a guardian. According to Ren Feng, the county wanted to send a guardian.

Whether it is the chief executive or the Established Cult Protector, for local forces such as the Flying Eagle Sect, Happy Forest, and the Green Wolf Gang, it is a huge stone that the Holy Sect has come down on their heads, not to mention being stronger than them.

Wherever the identity of Shan Sheng Sect's subordinates is, they have to be their fathers on weekdays.

The fact that a lion opens its mouth every year in Renfeng County is enough for them. Now that a new guardian has arrived, the three of them are naturally not happy.

Tan Gang couldn't help but wonder at this moment: "Don't you take action yourself, sir?"

Ren Feng glanced at him and said: "I can do it myself, but I'm afraid that if that little beast really breaks through the Gang Qi realm, I won't be able to take him down by myself, and the three of you will not even be able to sleep peacefully!"

"Thank you, sir, for considering us."

"My lord, I admire you for your careful actions!"

"Not bad, it's better to be safe. We'll wait for the good news, sir."

The three of them were stunned for a moment. Although they began to compliment each other on their lips, there was a trace of disdain in their hearts.

After all, aren't you still old enough to be afraid of death...

However, thinking of Hou Yuxiao's fierceness, the disdain for Ren Feng in the three people's hearts was slightly restrained.

After all, they themselves are afraid of Hou Yuxiao, otherwise they wouldn't have paid to find Ren Feng!

………………

After all, Zhaoyang County is a small place. At midnight, there are almost no pedestrians on the four busiest streets. When it comes to midnight, after the oil lamps on the roadside are extinguished, the whole county falls into silence.

After the dark city fell into silence, the cold wind blew by, making the streets even more desolate.

In the center of Pingyang Street, at the corner near the Sacred Heart Residence, there was a sudden rustling of movement, followed by three or four childish voices in the cold wind.

"This territory is mine, and none of you are allowed to come over!" This little girl's voice seemed to be trembling due to fear. Although it was immature, it contained a touching tenacity.

However, the person who was talking to her obviously didn't notice the moving words in her words.

"You little bitch, you're looking for death, give me a beating."

After the conversation ended, there was a crackling sound.

"Boss, she seems to be dying."

"Unlucky, I also said that I could find some leftovers from the Sacred Heart House. I'd like to see red in the middle of the night. Let's take a walk and change places!"

As three or four ragged figures disappeared from the street corner, only a body as thin as a kitten was left, lying alone in a puddle on the street corner, trembling from time to time, which seemed to be just out of the human body's instinctive desire to survive.

, telling the world that she is still alive and hoping that someone can come to save her.

It's a pity that at this time and place, not to mention passers-by, not even a single wild cat or dog can be seen. No matter how hard she trembles, it's in vain.

On the second floor of Sacred Heart House, in a simple and elegant boudoir, a girl in blue sat cross-legged on a soft bed holding a sword in her left hand and a sutra in her right hand. She suddenly opened her eyes, her beautiful and calm brows slightly furrowed, revealing a trace of

With an unbearable expression, he sighed.

"Peony, go save that little girl!"

"Miss, I'm going right away."

The maid in black appeared from the shadows and was about to jump out of the window to save the little beggar.

"etc!"

The girl in blue suddenly spoke up again to stop Peony. She stood up quietly without letting go of the dagger and scripture in her hands. She walked lightly to the window sill and looked through the gap in the direction of the little girl on the street corner.

At the corner of the street, a figure in green suddenly stopped in front of the little girl. Like her just now, he sighed slightly, picked up the little girl, and disappeared into the night.

"Doing good deeds is still my old profession after all. It's so easy to do it!"

The slightly mocking self-deprecation of the man in blue carried along the cold wind to the ears of the girl in blue, causing the corner of her mouth to curl into a beautiful curve.

The maid in black, Peony, looked at the figure in green who disappeared into the street, with a curious expression on her face. She tilted her neck and asked the girl in blue, "Is this the person who was at the Sacred Heart Residence during the day? This behavior seems to be similar to him."

The reputation outside doesn’t match up.”

The girl in blue chuckled and said softly: "I told you, he is not as simple as you see, he has only half-stepped into the Gang Qi realm, and he has actually seen the way to merit.

I never thought that such a small Zhaoyang County could produce such talents. It seems that I really came to the right place this time!"
