Zhu Xiao looked at the familiar person in front of him and was not too surprised.
Before, everyone was guessing who the person who killed the Twelve Thieves was, but she was the only one who guessed something right away.
That person is probably Wang Sheng.
When they met in Jiangyuan City before, she knew that Wang Sheng was probably in Shuzhou, and she also knew how strong Wang Sheng was.
There are not many strong men who can kill the Grand Master so easily.
Excluding the grand masters of overlord-level forces, the remaining people are easy to guess.
The intelligence organizations of Lingjian Valley and Tiandao City are very strong, and her Yuelai Inn will only be stronger. In addition, with the great masters of Lingjian Valley and Tiandao City acting in front, she quickly found the intelligence organizations of Qingshan Village.
Location.
"I have never concealed the existence of this place." Wang Sheng served Zhu Xiao a cup of tea. This is the real guest. If the two people before him insist on saying so, they can only be regarded as bad guests.
"Who would have thought that a top strong man would come from this small mountain village, but this kind of life is really good."
】
If it weren't for the existence of Yuelai Inn, which required her to control the general direction, she would have wanted to live this kind of life.
But Yuelai Inn is her hard work, so it is impossible to give up like this, and there are a lot of things going on recently, so being able to take time out is already a break from her busy schedule.
Wang Sheng also saw Zhu Xiao's troubles and said, "If you encounter any problems, tell me and I may be able to give you some advice!"
"It's not a big deal. The main thing is that the shopkeeper in the south wants to transfer a batch of grain for disaster relief. This batch of grain is large in quantity, so it has been a bit busy recently."
"Disaster relief? What happened in the south?"
Wang Sheng knew that Yuelai Inn often provided disaster relief in some difficult places. He had seen it before when he traveled and was not surprised by this incident.
But even Zhu Xiao felt that there was a huge amount of grain. What happened in the south?
"There have been floods and continuous heavy rains in some places, causing rivers to burst their banks. People have been displaced, food has been flooded, and there is no food at all. So the general manager there has applied to me for a large amount of food."
"Are you sure this is true?" Although Zhu Xiao has strong control over Yuelai Inn, anything can happen in the face of huge interests.
"It has been confirmed. It is true. However, some of our warehouses in the south have also been flooded, so they need to be mobilized from other places. A certain amount of grain output needs to be reported to me. Therefore, the recent
There are a lot of things going on.”
Zhu Xiao rubbed his head.
Even if she is powerful, facing these things still consumes her energy.
After all, what happened this time was really too big.
Wang Sheng looked at Zhu Xiao, suddenly thought of something, and said, "Are you the only one who is mobilizing food?"
Zhu Xiao sneered after hearing this and said: "Other forces are not so kind. In order to compete for territory, they squeeze the food very tightly in order to support the strong ones on their side."
"Which state capitals are mainly affected by the disaster?"
"Manzhou..."
Zhu Xiao mentioned several state capitals in succession.
Wang Sheng heard it and then combined his own information.
"There are probably several territories in the Spirit Sword Valley here, but they haven't taken any action?"
"No, I wonder what they are thinking?" Zhu Xiao shook his head, a little angry.
"You didn't even take action..."
Wang Sheng felt more and more that his guess was correct - the Twelve Thieves were cultivated by several overlord-level forces.
The purpose is also very simple, to win the hearts and minds of the people.
Wait until the people are in despair and then show up to save them. In this case, you can gain the greatest support from the people, because it is the force that saved them in despair.
The same is true for floods in the south.
When a person is hungry to a certain extent, that is true despair.
As long as the Spirit Sword Valley appears at the right time, it can win over the people on the largest scale.
Wang Sheng directly told Zhu Xiao his guess.
"There are many ways to win over people's hearts. As long as this method of winning over people's hearts is done properly, you can get a lot of gains. You know, even a warrior knows who owns the territory of those state capitals in the south.
But for some ordinary people, there are probably some who don’t even know that the Great Zhou Dynasty has been destroyed. The person who saves them will be the savior in their hearts!"
Although this kind of speculation is wild and unreasonable, it is not impossible.
Zhu Xiao also runs a large inn, so he naturally understands the viciousness of this approach.
But soon she thought of a loophole.
"According to your analysis, the common people should be a very important 'resource' for them. If you do this, you will lose a large number of common people. It is simply not worth the loss."
Wang Sheng was stunned, this was indeed a place that could not be explained.
In the end, neither of them could come up with any clues.
But the seeds of doubt have been planted in my heart.
Because there are indeed a lot of doubts in this matter.
Zhu Xiao didn't stay too long, there were really a lot of things she had to deal with.
Before she left, Wang Sheng gave a reminder.
"It's best to pay attention to the grain shipped to the south. If it is as we guessed, something unexpected may happen to this batch of grain."
Zhu Xiao nodded, indicating that he understood.
But things didn't end there.
The development of things in the next two months exceeded Wang Sheng's expectations.
The floods in the south seemed to be just the beginning. It didn’t take long for various natural disasters to appear in various parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
And these natural disasters are extremely strange.
Floods in the south, blizzards in the north, drought in the west, and storms in the east.
These natural disasters unexpectedly occurred at the same time. Although they did not occur in all areas of the Great Zhou Dynasty, just this caused countless people to be displaced and left without food or clothing.
Some of the news was obtained by people from the three major families, while some of the news was told by Zhu Xiao.
She bluntly said that her Yuelai Inn could no longer manage it. There were too many people affected by the disaster, and her family's power base could not support it at all.
In the end, she could only shrink the scale and support the places closest to her.
In other places, if the overlord-level forces do not take action, it is not an exaggeration to say that it will be hell on earth.
Wang Sheng also felt during his practice that the power of "incense faith" that came every day was greatly reduced, leaving only a little bit.
He can understand this. He knows that there are disaster-stricken places all over the Zhou Dynasty, and people will not survive. If faith can't save him, who cares what you believe in.
"Although this is a good thing for me and greatly reduces the pressure on my spiritual thoughts, it is not a good thing for many people!"
Faced with this situation, he had no good solution.
He has actually tried to use his ability to change the weather to change those natural disasters, especially in drought-stricken places.
But this can only save a temporary situation. As soon as he leaves, the natural disaster will come back.
But this also allowed him to find out something.
This natural disaster is indeed abnormal. It seems to be affected by some deeper force, and with his current strength, there is simply no way to reverse this situation.
There is no way to even temporarily treat the symptoms.
"Sure enough, there is only one way to face this situation - endure it!"
We don’t know how long this natural disaster will last, but at present, it seems that the only solution is to survive these natural disasters.
But if you want to get through it, you need real supplies, and an extremely large amount of supplies.
But this material cannot be obtained by just any force. Even with such a large base as the Great Zhou Dynasty, even if all the overlord-level forces take action, they may not be able to satisfy it.
Time passed slowly, and one month passed, entering the 540th year of the Great Zhou Calendar. In May, the natural disasters did not slow down much.
People die every day. The number of deaths caused by natural disasters is much more terrible than man-made disasters and is incalculable.
The first is the frail and elderly people, who are the first to be unable to cope with these situations.
But at this time, the overlord-level forces still did not take action.
Wang Sheng has been practicing during this period, and he has long understood this matter.
Even if he wants to solve this matter, the best way is to improve his strength.
"realm--
Refining Qi and stopping fire: 49%

Inner Alchemy (Refining Qi): Break limit 5 (20%)

Five Elements Boxing: Limit Breaking 4 (15%)—The Five Zang Yun Shen is born: 76%
Yi Jin Jing: Break Limit 4 (35%) - True Body: 86%"
Sanitary Vacuum Induction Chapter: Breaking the Limit 1 (15%)
During this period of time, apart from studying the "sword transformation art", the most important thing Wang Sheng did was to practice inner alchemy, so the progress of "refining qi, transforming qi and stopping fire" was greatly improved, and other things
, but there are two things that break the limit.
One is "Sword Flying: Limit Break 1 (1%)" and the other is Forging.
The reason why Yu Jian's flight limit is very simple, that is, he will occasionally go out to rain in the most severe drought areas, and go back and forth. The more times he uses Yu Jian to fly, the limit will naturally be exceeded.
The effect of breaking the limit is not ordinary. After breaking the limit, using the sword to fly, he can simply combine the human sword with the sword and simply fly into a rainbow. The flying speed of the sword is much faster.
But it's still far from the real rainbow speed, it's just faster than before.
Then there is the forging, which is broken when the blood-forged steel is absorbed by the new flying sword.
Wang Sheng has also experimented with the effect after breaking the limit. This effect does not affect the forged weapons, but can purify the metal to a certain extent when forging it.
This kind of purification will not change the essence, but will make the quality of the metal higher. Simply put, it will remove some meaningless things in the metal.
Of course, if the essence is not changed, it will be of little use to Wang Sheng currently.
So he didn't pay much attention.
Without breakthroughs in strength, no problems can be solved.
But a breakthrough in strength cannot be accomplished in a short time, even if there is a progress bar.
Zhu Xiao also comes here often. She has gone to find other overlord-level forces, and those forces have not said they cannot take action. They say they are preparing but not ready yet.
Later, Zhu Xiao came to him again and made a decision: "I'm going to take action. If persuasion doesn't work, then I'll use force! Do you want to take action?"
Wang Sheng thought for a while and finally nodded.
But just when they were preparing to take action, the overlord-level forces took action! A large amount of supplies were dispersed, which exceeded everyone's imagination!
(I have something to do today, so I’m a little late, but I’m still checking in! It’s the third day, hehe!)
