Things in the world are so wonderful that it’s hard to describe...
While running on the mountain path, looking at the distress on Yun Feiyang's face behind him, Wu Dong had the urge to complain.
Who are you showing your face to?
Isn't it just that you were assigned to a remote town? It didn't send you directly to the countryside or dangerous areas, which is already very good.
At this time, almost five days have passed since the outer gate competition ended.
As expected, three young brothers from the same village who had a close relationship all entered the inner gate of the village through the outer gate competition.
This incident caused a great sensation in the village.
Entering the inner gate means that the future status of the little brothers has widened the gap with the old, weak, women and children in the village.
When setting up a banquet to celebrate, the villagers were fawning over and overly enthusiastic, but Wu Dong was simply ignored.
Who told him that he didn't even participate in the outer sect competition, and he didn't start practicing internal skills? Even if he would soon be the second-ranked martial arts steward in a remote town, he wouldn't attract much interest from the villagers.
In their opinion, Wu Dong will be like this from now on. How can the young brothers who enter the inner sect have a future?
Naturally, the three little brothers would not be so superficial. Apart from anything else, they could only support Wu Dong with less than twenty moves if they joined forces at this time.
With this tyrannical force, they did not dare to underestimate Wu Dong, let alone that they were here today because of Wu Dong's hand in hand.
He doesn't behave well in front of outsiders, but he is very respectful in private, at least for now.
As for what happens in the future, it depends on the improvement of each person's strength.
If Wu Dong is surpassed by his younger brothers in the future, don't expect them to be as respectful as ever. He knows this well.
I don’t know how the family members of the young men from the outer sect who have disbanded operated.
As soon as the three brothers went to the inner gate to report, Wu Dong received an order to go to Linjiang Town immediately.
He has no intention of procrastinating. After saying goodbye to his little brothers, he will set off with his colleagues sent to Linjiang Town from the village.
Except for one of his outer disciples, the members who went to Linjiang Town this time were five handyman disciples who had been working for three years.
What surprised him was that among the five handyman disciples, he actually knew one of them. It was Yun Feiyang whom he met by chance during the outer sect competition.
Just the name alone is memorable to Wu Dong.
However, this guy put on a bitter and resentful face, as if he had been greatly wronged, and was sending a steady stream of negative emotions to his companions.
Including Wu Dong and a fellow guide, no one wanted to interact with this guy.
Damn it, maybe only blood parents in this world will care for you selflessly, and outsiders have no such obligation.
Wu Dong and Yun Feiyang only have a relationship, so why would they care about whether this guy is in a good mood or not?
Besides, he is the leader of this small team. Even when they arrive at the destination, Linjiang Town, he is still the second-ranked martial arts steward, and all the handyman disciples who are traveling with him are his subordinates.
At this time, if you don't take advantage of the rare opportunity to leave a good impression on Wu Dong and show off to him, you are asking for trouble.
The other handyman disciples who were traveling with him, not to mention deliberately trying to please him, at least greeted him with smiles every day, allowing him to fully experience what it was like to be a small leader.
Fortunately, Yun Feiyang is not a stubborn guy, and he quickly noticed something was wrong.
One night, he quietly found Wu Dong and first expressed his apology and explained the reason for his previous bad attitude.
He really didn't expect that the village would assign him to Linjiang Town.
It was hard to accept it for a while, and my depression showed directly on my face.
After hearing Yun Feiyang's explanation, Wu Dong did not comment or say anything comforting, but just reminded him to adjust his mentality as soon as possible.
"It doesn't matter at the moment. The people accompanying us are all copycat disciples of the same batch. In the future, they will be colleagues for many years, and they will more or less give some face!"
"But the copycat colleagues in Linjiang Town may not be easy to deal with!"
"After all, I am only the second-ranked military steward. I have to adapt to Linjiang Town for a while. I don't know if the military stewards there will be easy to get along with!"
"We are here for the first time. Before we have a clear understanding of the environment, we must be cautious in everything. Otherwise, we will not be able to blame others for being shoehorned in!"
He not only made this clear to Yun Feiyang, who took the initiative to express his apology, but also made it clear to other colleagues while he was on his way.
These colleagues were all handyman disciples, so they naturally understood Wu Dong's good intentions. In addition, since they were all disciples of the same batch of copycats, they naturally became a little closer to each other.
No matter what their intentions are, at least on the surface they are actively moving closer to Wu Dong, and there are likely to be signs of forming a small hilltop headed by Wu Dong before arriving at Linjiang Town.
Wu Dong has no intention of forming cliques. Who knows what is going on with the handyman disciples who are traveling with him?
Only Yun Feiyang clearly showed his resistance to going to Linjiang Town. The expressions of the other servant disciples were very calm, and it was difficult not to make people think too much.
Not to mention the chores within the small team, the group's journey to their destination, Linjiang Town, was not an easy one.
After leaving the village, it was initially a plain area crisscrossed by official roads and waterways. According to the guide, this was the core of the area controlled by the village.
Water and land transportation is developed, the towns are prosperous, and there is an endless stream of people like weaving carriages and horses.
As expatriates from Shanzhai, they can rent carriages and horse shops and passenger ships affiliated with Shanzhai in various towns and cities at extremely low prices.
That stretch of nearly two hundred miles was quite easy and comfortable.
It was also the first time for Wu Dong to see the prosperity of the towns under Shanzhai's jurisdiction, the strength of Shanzhai's control over the local area, and the tip of the iceberg of Shanzhai's huge industry.
Following the guide's proud introduction, he gained a clearer understanding of the village and the secular rules of this world.
The Shanzhai is one of the three major gangs in Jiangling County and directly controls seven of the 21 cities under the county's jurisdiction.
The so-called control means that in addition to the official government in name, all matters in the controlled area, whether they are government affairs or military affairs, are handled by the Shanzhai.
Speaking of which, it is similar in nature to the Jianghu forces in Fengyun World. It has evolved from Jianghu forces to local vassal forces.
Apart from anything else, Shanzhai gave Wudong the second-ranked position of military manager in Linjiang Town, which was definitely a good job, equivalent to the position of mayor or mayor of a certain township in the previous life.
Although there is a first military manager who is similar to a secretary, he still has considerable authority and say.
No matter what the situation is in Linjiang Town, Wu Dong's life will definitely not be too bad.
Speaking of which, he was really grateful to his colleagues in the outer sect for their cool actions, otherwise such a good thing would not have happened...
