I Borrowed a Brain from the Almighty
Chapter 685: Name
"From today on, everyone in the city must pay taxes! Poll tax!"
The government is like the madness before destruction, and people who are forced cannot survive.
The Yellow River Gang took advantage of the situation to expand, and its secret forces spread throughout the county. They colluded with the Yellow River Sect outside, and their influence spread across thirteen provinces in the world. With such a huge power, the government did not care about it. All energy is focused on suppressing the rebellious victims.
Changxin City is even more depressed.
Since killing Old Man Luo from the Beihe Martial Arts School, the Yellow River Gang has become more and more unscrupulous in their actions, and their spies are everywhere in the city. Even the county magistrates on the surface have become their people. Secretly, the officials have no access to the Yellow River Sect, so they have joined the Yellow River Gang. Anyone with some status has a temporary position in the Yellow River Gang, looking like the end of the dynasty. scene.

These people are not stupid. They wear the clothes of the government during the day and are members of the Yellow River Gang at night. They place bets on both sides. No matter what the final result is, they are all winners.
There has been a severe drought for three years, with victims everywhere.
The situation is becoming increasingly tense, not only in the Beiyue Kingdom, but also in the Yu Kingdom in the south. There is purgatory everywhere and there is no pure land.
Chen Hen also joined the Yellow River Gang and became a doctor in the gang.
This identity was obtained by my sister Chen Yuan after a lot of favors, and Chen Hen couldn't refuse. In three years, his health improved slightly, but he was still unable to practice martial arts.
In three years, he had two more consciousnesses in his mind.
Each of the five consciousnesses has its own area of expertise. Chen Hen was able to pass the examination as a doctor of the Yellow River Gang because of the help of the heads in his mind.
"Zhao Kun, the Yellow River Gang, the Demon Cult."
Farmhouse.
Chen Hen pounded the medicinal materials inside with a medicine pestle, and red light flashed in his eyes from time to time.
In the past three years, the hatred in his heart has not dissipated with the passage of time, but has become more and more intense in his heart.
"What are you thinking about?"
Chen Yuan wrapped the bandage and looked at her little brother who was in a daze, with a trace of worry in her eyes. Her strength has improved a lot in the past three years, and she can now participate in the middle-level affairs of the Yellow River Gang. Through these messages, she has learned more information that she could not see before.
The time for the Yellow River Sect to gain momentum is getting closer and closer. Even though the Yellow River Sect is currently at its peak, once it really launches a rebellion, it's hard to say what the outcome will be. This is a fool's errand. Normally everyone talks and laughs when sharing money together, but once fundamental interests are involved, they become life-and-death enemies.
But they have nowhere else to go now.
The Yu Kingdom will definitely not be able to go back. I heard that there is chaos there. Many parties are rebelling against the king and are attacking the city and plundering the territory. There are also people from all walks of life mixed in. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. Although it is a bit dangerous to stay among the Yellow River Gang now, at least you can still survive.
"Nothing, just"
"Both of you are here? Just in time, it saves me the trouble of looking for each one."
A voice came from outside, interrupting the chat between the two siblings. Cheng Xiong, the leader of the Yellow River Gang, pushed the door in from outside.
"Gang leader."
Chen Yuan wanted to get up, but Cheng Xiong pushed her back before she could move. With a bright smile on his face, he pulled up a chair and sat down next to the two siblings.
"Get some rest if you're injured."
Chen Hen sat silently by the side, pounding the medicine, without speaking.
Cheng Xiong didn't care. He first briefly asked about Chen Yuan's injuries, and then asked about Chen Hen's recent recovery. He was like an old friend coming to visit.
But Chen Yuan doesn’t think so.
He had seen the ferocious side of Cheng Xiong, and he knew better than anyone else how terrifying this gang leader was. It was this man who ordered the death of old man Luo and his family in the martial arts school. The entire family was spared no chickens or dogs, and had no regard for the morality of the world.
"I remember that you two siblings are from Yu State, right?"
Cheng Xiong suddenly asked.
As soon as these words came out, both siblings became vigilant and did not reply.
"Don't be nervous, I'm here to tell you some good news." Cheng Xiong laughed, and then took out two copper tokens from his arms. This is the identity token of an official disciple of the Yellow River Sect, only one level lower than Cheng Xiong, the incense master.
"After hearing about what happened to you two, the sect decided to help you avenge your hatred and eradicate those hypocrites in the Yu Kingdom."
After saying that, without waiting for the siblings to react, they put the token on the table, stood up and walked out. This is Cheng Xiong's habit. He never listens to the opinions of his subordinates when doing things.
"You two get ready and follow me south in three days."
The courtyard fell silent.
Neither the sister nor the brother spoke. They did not expect that the ambition of the Yellow River Sect was so great. Before the Beiyue Kingdom had eaten it, they began to peek at the Yu Kingdom. As the pushed out chess pieces, the two of them are definitely the most dangerous, and everyone in the Yu Kingdom will regard them as traitors.
"Don't go. I'll go alone. If something happens, I'll do it alone."
"Can you escape?"
Chen Hen interrupted his sister and looked at his sister Chen Yuan seriously for the first time.
Chen Yuan fell silent for a moment. She looked at the two tokens on the table and understood that this matter was not something she could decide at all.
The thoughts in my mind popped up again.
I can no longer stay with the Yellow River Gang.
Three days later.
Cheng Xiong led a group of carefully selected subordinates and sneaked into the Yu Kingdom together with the Chen family siblings.
At this time, the state of Yu had completely lost its former prosperity. Bones were exposed in the wild, and no roosters crowed for thousands of miles. Looking around, there were abandoned villages everywhere, black smoke curled, and the sounds of jackals and hyenas continued to come from the wild forest. The Ping'an Inn, where the two siblings had stayed, had been burned into ruins by a fire, leaving only some broken bricks and tiles. The walls that had not collapsed were pitch black, and the bones buried under the charred land could still be vaguely seen.
"Are all the people in this place dead?"
A master of the Yellow River Sect squatted on the ground, scratched the ground with his machete twice, and found a corpse that had been eaten by wild beasts.
"There must be some living people."
Cheng Xiong's original plan was to take the Chen siblings to sweep the Yu martial arts world in the name of revenge, and then take advantage of the situation to grow stronger and establish a separatist. However, judging from the current situation, the situation in the state of Yu is worse than they expected, and the details may need to be adjusted.
"Let's go. We'll stay here for one night and go directly to Sand City tomorrow."
Shacheng is the northernmost county city of Yu State. Like Changxin City where the Yellow River Cult is located, it is a border city. Cheng Xiong had been here once before and knew the general location.
No words were spoken that night.
At dusk the next day, a group of people quietly entered Sand City.
This most prosperous city in the north of Yu State is now extremely depressed. There are almost no living people in the city. The occasional passers-by have dull eyes, like zombies, their bodies are so thin that they can be blown down by a gust of wind. In the dark corners of the street corners, there are cold and hard corpses. It is unknown how long they have been dead, and no one has cleaned them up.
Most of the soldiers guarding the city have dispersed, and the rest are old, weak, sick and disabled. Half a month ago, a grass-roots king named King Qi robbed Sand City. The lord of Sand City fled with the masters in the city overnight, leaving the old and weak in the city to be robbed by the thieves.
The Sand City they see now is a dead city after the thieves have wreaked havoc.
If we leave it alone, it won't be long before the plague breaks out, and the people still in the city will die one after another, and become a desperate place.
"Boss, the situation is worse than we thought."
Qi Wan told the news he had heard. Their previous target was the Golden Knife King of Sand City. They killed this person by seeking revenge in the Jianghu, and then used the Golden Knife King's wealth to recruit soldiers and secretly expand their power. But now, let alone the Golden Knife King, there are not many living people in the city. Compared with developing power, their most important problem should be to survive.
The dry food brought from the Yellow River Gang is almost finished.
"What was your Chen family's reputation before?"
It is definitely not possible to go back. If this matter is not handled well, the leader will not let him go. Cheng Xiong's eyes flickered, and his eyes looked at the Chen family siblings who had been silent next to him.
People have been brought here, so naturally they should be used to the maximum extent.
After all, they are people from Beiyue Country, and it is most appropriate for the Chen family siblings to do many things.
"Before being exterminated by the Demon Cult, there was some reputation."
"What do you want to do?"
The siblings spoke at the same time.
"Master was killed by a traitor. We disciples have returned from our studies. Naturally, we want to avenge Master and rebuild the sect." Cheng Xiong already had a plan in mind, but he needed a reason, a reason to integrate into the Yu Kingdom.
Jianghu vendetta is a very useful excuse.
Beiyue Kingdom's identity is definitely not good. When it was weak, no one cared, but once it became big, it would definitely be rejected by the Yu Kingdom. Don't underestimate the rejection of a country when facing foreign enemies.
"Sect?"
"Chen Quan Sect."
"My father is good at swordsmanship."
"Then call it Chen Dao Sect."
Cheng Xiong's thoughts became more and more complete. He was a gang leader and had the vision he should have.
"What about food?"
Qi Wan asked the question he was most concerned about. Qi Wan, like Cheng Xiong, was an important member of the Yellow River Sect. His identity was the deputy incense master, responsible for the supplies in the Changxin City area, and he was Cheng Xiong's right-hand man.
"There are still some people in the city. The bandits have done all kinds of evil things, and this one thing is not bad."
A trace of cruelty flashed in Cheng Xiong's eyes.
They have never been good people. In this world, good people don't live long.
"Let Chen Hufa do this." Cheng Xiong looked at the Chen siblings, and the others looked over.
Chen Yuan nodded silently.
She didn't dare to refuse. Even if she could escape, her brother Chen Hen couldn't escape. Cheng Xiong chose to bring them both here, just to use Chen Hen to threaten her.
Chen Hen clenched his fists silently, and the hatred in his heart became stronger.
A few days later.
"Southwest hero Chen Zhenghe? It seems that there is such a person."
After going through the initial difficulties, Cheng Xiong and his party finally gained a foothold in Shacheng. The window period after the rampage of bandits gave them an opportunity to develop.
This group of people took advantage of the name of the Southwest hero to start a sect and recruit good players.
The resource problem was also alleviated by the efforts of Deputy Xiangzhu Qi Wan and Chen Yuan. It's just that there are more bones buried in secret. (End of this chapter)
