Chapter 1032 Nine bells ring, the whole faction is thoroughly investigated!
It took half a day before the pain eased slightly. At this moment, Li Yang's back was wet with cold sweat and his face was as pale as paper.
This Dragon and Tiger Pill is the most precious treasure of the Sun and Moon Sect. Why is it that eating it does not bring any benefit, but instead causes unbearable pain?
Li Yang was puzzled, and when he saw the sunset, he picked up the wood and returned to the servant's room.
The back mountain was quite far away from the servant's house, and the load was two thousand kilograms. Because Li Yang was moving slowly, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening when he returned to the servant's house.
The slaves were having a meal, munching on the steamed buns and devouring their food. The male slaves did manual labor and it was understandable that they ate a lot. The female slaves who lived in the yard next door had a relatively easy job, but they were indeed more miserable than the men.
Because the men of the Sun Moon Sect and even the Tianwu Continent do not take the dignity of maids seriously. Not only do they have to do some menial jobs, but they are also objects that can be whipped at will. If they are good-looking, it will be even more miserable.
You will face unlimited bullying and insults.
Everyone looked at Li Yang, who was carrying a heavy load and standing upright, and couldn't help but be startled.
"Why does he act like he's doing nothing when he carries so much wood?"
"Such great strength and divine power. No wonder he was able to escape from being shot by Master Neimen at the hunting ground the day before yesterday."
"I originally thought he was just lucky, but now it seems he is really capable."
The crowd was all talking and talking.
The steward Zhao Guangjun was sitting at a table alone, drinking wine and eating meat. When he heard the discussion, his eyes subconsciously glanced towards Li Yang. He couldn't help but be startled. He was silent for half a minute before he got up and walked towards Li Yang.
"You carried it back like this. There is a twenty-mile mountain road from the back mountain to the slave house!"
Zhao Guangjun asked in disbelief.
"right."
Li Yang responded calmly, not because he cherished his words like gold, but because he was afraid that if he spoke too much, he would make mistakes and get whipped by Zhao Guangjun.
"I have a lot of strength, but what I ask for is two thousand kilograms of wood. If you can't finish it, I will have to whip you."
Zhao Guangjun had a sullen face and ordered: "You two bring the scale over and weigh it immediately. The difference is one pound and one whip."
No slave had ever been able to complete the task of chopping two thousand kilograms of wood in one day, and he did not believe that Li Yang could carry two thousand kilograms of wood and walk twenty kilometers on a mountain road.
He set the amount of wood to embarrass Li Yang, so he had to be serious and weigh it carefully.
Li Yang waited for the scale to be moved closer, and then put the wood tied to his body on the scale. The existing weights could not complete the weighing, so he had to put the weights on three times in a row before the weighing was completed.
"How much is the difference? Report the number."
Zhao Guangjun took off the whip from his waist and was eager to try it.
"Steward, the weight is...two thousand three hundred kilograms."
The middle-aged servant told the truth.
What?
Zhao Guangjun was stunned at first, then quickly looked at the scale. When he saw it clearly, he couldn't help but take a breath. Carrying two thousand three hundred kilograms of firewood may not be a big deal, but walking twenty-three hundred kilograms with a load of two thousand three hundred kilograms.
Lishan Road, this is so powerful. He has been in charge of the slave room for several years and has never encountered such a powerful person.
Not only was there no difference in weight, it was also overweight. This made him angrily put the whip back to his waist and said: "Now that it's done, I won't hit you."
Punishing slaves without reason is not conducive to control. Although slaves are despicable, in order to facilitate management, some basic reward and punishment systems must be followed.
"Thank you, steward."
Li Yang said calmly with no expression on his face.
"Those who are able will work harder. I will increase the amount for you tomorrow. Four thousand kilograms of wood. If you can't finish it, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Zhao Guangjun said sternly, sneering in his heart. It would be too easy for him to make things difficult for a slave.
"I understand, I will try my best."
Li Yang responded cautiously.
"Let's go eat."
Zhao Guangjun dismissed it impatiently, and after he finished speaking, he didn't bother to look at Li Yang anymore.
Li Yang wanted to find a table and sit down at random, but when he saw Liu Feng waving to him vigorously, he sat over, grabbed a wowotou, and started to nibble on it.
"Brother, I made a special inquiry today. There are many wild animals in the back mountain. You must be careful not to go deep."
Liu Feng said softly.
"rest assured."
Li Yang said with a smile.
Liu Feng was young, only fourteen years old, and Liu Feng was particularly concerned about him, which made him instinctively have a good impression of Liu Feng.
Suddenly, the bell rang, nine times in a row, the sound shook the mountains and fields.
"Nine bells ring. This is the highest-level summons order. The leader is summoning the elders, hall masters, deacons, and inner and outer sect disciples to gather together!"
"Something must have happened!"
"It has nothing to do with us anyway, let's continue eating."
The people at the table were talking all over the place.
Li Yang didn't take it seriously at first, but soon Ding Hanqiu, the deacon of the outer sect, led a group of outer disciples and barged in: "All the slaves come and gather for inspection. A few people will go in and search the room for me carefully."
.”
Did something get lost?
The slaves became nervous and quickly stood in line.
"Deacon Ding, may I ask what's going on?"
Zhao Guangjun came over and asked, bowing slightly and showing a very respectful attitude.
"The Dragon Tiger Pill was lost. The leader was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. But don't be afraid. The Dragon Tiger Pill was personally kept by the Great Elder and you servants can't access it. I came here just for a formality."
Ding Hanqiu said lightly.
When Li Yang heard this, his expression changed, but he soon felt relieved. He had already swallowed the Dragon Tiger Pill, so it was impossible for anyone to find out.
"Hands up."
The disciple in black from the outer sect said coldly.
Since Li Yang was in the first position at the edge, he was searched first. It was just a simple search and he passed quickly.
In the middle of the courtyard, Zhao Guangjun said again: "Deacon Ding, I have sent many pills. If I lose a Dragon and Tiger Pill, how can I make the boss angry?"
"You are a steward of a slave room, what do you know?"
"The Dragon Tiger Pill is the most precious treasure of our sect. It has been passed down for thousands of years, and there is only one of it."
"This Dragon Tiger Pill can temper the roots and bones, cleanse the hair and cut the marrow. Even if you take it to a waste like you, the cultivation of the roots and bones can skyrocket. Okay, stop asking. If you keep asking, I will give you face."
?"
Ding Hanqiu became obviously impatient at the end of his words.
"Shut up now, little one, and Butler Ding, please calm down."
Zhao Guangjun trembled and was terrified. As the steward of the slave room, he could only bully and bully the slaves. Let alone the deacon, he could not afford to offend ordinary outer disciples.
Tempering the roots and bones, washing the hair and cutting the marrow, and the cultivation level skyrocketed?
It's all nonsense! Li Yang said secretly in his heart, Damn, he swallowed the Dragon Bone Pill, and it had no benefit except pain. His heart still hurts a little now.
"Tell the deacon that nothing was found."
"Walk."
Ding Hanqiu led the people away and continued searching elsewhere...
