"Brother, it's important for you to pick up girls. Little brother, I'm going to level up!" Wu Ye immediately urged.
"Brother Xian, wait a minute, I still have something to ask you!" Qin Feng hurriedly grabbed Wu Ye and said.
"Big brother, just tell me whatever you want. As long as the younger brother can do it, I will do my best!" When Wu Ye heard this, his heart suddenly moved, and he probably took on the task!
"Actually, it's like this. Someone recently reported that a village is still collecting a poll tax, and there are a lot of complaints about it. However, this poll tax was already abolished at the beginning of the empire. I don't know why it still continues to this day. It's enough.
It lasted for 106 years, so I had to send someone to investigate!" Qin Feng gave an overview of the matter.
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Wu Ye said in shock.
"Yeah, I think it's very strange too. It's just that Kuanglang City is relatively remote in this village, so it's rarely controlled. If someone hadn't reported it, they might still have been kept in the dark. Oh, by the way, this village is called E Village.
!" Qin Feng continued.
"E Village? Collecting taxes for 106 years?" Wu Ye murmured to himself.
Wu Ye quickly opened the big map and looked at it carefully, and found that E Village was really far away from Kuanglang City, almost to the edge of the map.
"Ding, the system prompts to find out why E Village, under the jurisdiction of Kuanglang City, has collected taxes until now. Do you accept it?"
"accept"
"My dear brother, I leave the matter to you in E Village. I always feel that the matter in E Village is not simple, so my dear brother must be more careful when you go there!" Qin Feng warned.
"Brother, please don't worry, just leave this matter to me, you can just go and pick up the girl with peace of mind. When the younger brother comes back, you must see the beautiful girl in your arms, haha..." Wu Ye said with a smile,
"Haha... Thank you for your kind words, dear brother!" Qin Feng said happily.
After Wu Ye said goodbye to Qin Feng, he hurriedly set out on the road to E Village.
…
It took a lot of time to arrive at the entrance of Goose Village. In front of the village entrance, there was a group of skinny geese running around, looking very panicked.
When we walked into the village, there were dilapidated low buildings everywhere. The occasional villagers we saw were squatting feebly on simple haystacks. A cursory look back showed that every villager had a sallow face and yellow skin, and some old, weak, women and children all over their bodies.
.
Looking from a distance, you can see a complete manor. Although it is not very magnificent, it is still decent. Compared with the incomplete short houses around it, this is simply a big breakthrough. It has become
The highlight of the entire village.
Wu Ye frowned slightly, walked up to a villager and asked directly: "Whose manor does the front of the house belong to, and why is it so different?"
The villager gritted his teeth and said: "Village Chief Huang Tianba's residence, the damn village chief collects taxes under various pretexts every day!"
Wu Ye secretly wondered, could it be that the village chief was behind the taxation that lasted for 106 years? But the village chief's lifespan is a bit long, right?
"Since you hate him so much, why don't you resist?" Wu Ye asked doubtfully.
"Why did you resist? He recruited a large number of minions. Some of the villagers who resisted were killed by them and then fed to the dogs." The villager said helplessly.
Wu Ye's frown deepened. He thought that he only needed to find out why the tax was collected. Unexpectedly, the village chief was involved in this matter, and he also had armed forces. After looking at the task list, there was no prompt that the task was completed, so he could not go back to his madness.
Langcheng has handed in the task, and the reason has obviously been found. Why is it not prompted to complete? Is there another reason? It seems that I have to go to the village chief's manor.
The entire Goose Village is not too big, and the village chief's manor is too dazzling. Without any further questioning, Wu Ye walked towards the village chief's manor.
"What are you doing?" As soon as Wu Ye arrived at the door of the village chief's manor, two door guards asked threateningly.
Wow! A little guard of the village chief is so arrogant. It seems that he is used to being domineering. Then the village chief is not so awesome?
"I'm here to see the village chief. Is the village chief here?" Wu Ye temporarily suppressed his patient anger and asked politely.
"Who are you? What do you want from our Uncle Huang?" the guard asked disdainfully.
"I am your uncle!"
As soon as Wu Ye finished speaking, before the two guards could react, the magic sword in his hand was already swung. A purple sword light carried a soft arc and gently touched the necks of the two guards.
Wu Ye hurriedly slid to the right to avoid the spray of blood, and murmured: "Anyway, I am also a baron. I have seen some awesome people, but I have never seen anyone with such a loud voice."
Looking at the two corpses lying in front of him, Wu Ye said scornfully: "You are so damn weak, how can you bully the villagers like this?"
After thinking about it, he finally summoned the red-eyed tiger. As soon as the red-eyed tiger smelled the smell of blood, he immediately became excited. He opened his mouth and wanted to bite the two corpses. Wu Ye quickly kicked him with his feet.
Opening its big mouth: "Is this edible? It will stink to death!"
The red-eyed tiger could only follow him angrily. Wu Ye stepped straight into the manor. After taking a few steps, six people immediately came out.
The equipment of these six people is obviously much better than that of the two guards in front.
"What do you do? Why did you break in!"
"Oh, I'm here to chat with the village chief!" Wu Ye said calmly.
"There is no village chief here, only Uncle Huang."
"Oh, that's why I came to see Uncle Huang to make tea." Wu Ye said still calmly.
"I think you are here to die, brothers. If he dares to disturb Mr. Huang's pleasure, I'll chop him alive." These six people are used to being domineering, but they couldn't bear Wu Ye's deception, and they immediately became angry.
He raised his weapon and struck at Wu Ye.
Wu Ye didn't say anything more. A strange sword shadow drew a crescent-shaped semicircle and passed through the armor of the six people without any hindrance. Waves of beautiful sounds of sharp blades tearing flesh were heard, accompanied by this
Each one screamed due to the stinging pain. Wu Ye killed half of these six people's health points in an instant, which was equivalent to removing half of their lives.
The six of them had never seen such a scene before, and they quickly knelt down on the ground: "Sir, please forgive me, but I can't see Mount Tai!"
As long as they can survive, no matter what they say, it should be what the six people are thinking at this moment.
"Tell me where the village chief is?" Wu Ye asked disdainfully.
