There were very few takers for Longshan's promise - to be exact, no one paid any heed.
After capturing Ling Yang, Lan Xiang's spirit boat flew towards Qingchuan again, leaving only twenty disciples to guard Ling Yang's temporary station.
When the situation has developed to this point, there is no need for Lan Xiang to directly intervene. The Shen family and the Xili Gang have acted as vanguards. Even when they informed Qingchuan and other forces, their tone was unusually tough.
They can't wait for the other party to resist, because there is a problem of wealth redistribution.
The Shen family's treasure house was plundered by the Xili Gang's casual cultivators, and then Dong Yi turned all the harvest over to Lan Xiang. Lan Xiang picked out some knickknacks from it and rewarded them to Dong Yi.
In this way, even if the Shen family's treasure house has evaporated, they will not have the courage to mention it to the faction. Lan Xiang will definitely say: Those who entered your treasure house are all members of the Xili Gang, right? How dare you doubt that I am a dignified faction?
moral integrity?
They didn't dare to ask Dong Yi for it. Even if they saw the magic weapon in the hands of some people from the Xili Gang, they didn't dare to ask.
Direct answer: This is a gift from the superior. If you don’t believe me, just ask.
The wealth accumulated by the Shen family for hundreds of years disappeared without a trace, but it was okay at last. Most of the fixed assets remained, and the clan was preserved. No matter how much you cherished the floating wealth, losing it would not be considered a loss.
Understood the foundation of the Shen family.
Of course, it is inevitable that the vitality will be severely damaged. In the next ten or even decades, the Shen family can only silently lick their wounds and recuperate quietly.
But right now, there is a great opportunity to make money, which is to follow Lan Xiang to attack those blind forces, and then share the profit! It is not without some small help.
Once the die-hard forces betrayed them, they would be more terrifying than their old enemies. Two forces in Qingchuan were slower to react and were directly attacked by the Shen family and the Xili Gang.
They didn't kill many people, they just subdued people, and then used the name of looking for people to loot, not to mention the treasure house, even the homes of ordinary cultivators were looted, and all valuable things were looted.
One of them was the invisible opponent of the Shejian Xue family in Qingchuan. The Xue family did not care about the three immortals being held captive by Lan Xiang, and together with the Shen family and the Xili Gang, they directly broke through the family's defensive formation.
At this point, Lan Xiang's disciples didn't need to take action at all. They could just stand back and watch from a distance.
Chen Taizhong's job was also a lot easier. He only had to look after Lan Xiang's disciples and avoid being taken advantage of by sudden attacks.
Looking at the swords and swords in front of him, he even had time to sit and drink tea, "A proxy war is indeed more pleasant."
However, the methods used to subdue these two families were a bit simple and crude. Some people died trying to protect their own property, and after the looting, there was a lot of mourning.
Even the Lord's Palace of Qingchuan City sent people to protest tactfully: Well... you guys, please don't take action until the negotiation breaks down, okay?
After suffering a painful lesson, these two families suddenly woke up and declared their allegiance to Lanxiang. Then they immediately showed off their fighting strength and sharpened their knives and searched everywhere to see which family was in Lanxiang and whose heart was in Longshan.
For a time, the entire Qingchuan people were in panic.
Chen Taizhong didn't care at first, but when he heard that someone broke into ordinary people's homes, searched them, and even injured the head of the household, he became furious - did I let you harm ordinary people?
Lan Xiang's disciples quickly mobilized, and the three perpetrators were quickly captured. Since this was the first offense, Dongshangren opened the door of the house and hung him upside down outside Qingchuan City for five days. His family paid ten times the compensation to the victim's family.
There is a reason why he is so angry. The so-called guy who stole the Longshan Library does not exist at all. It is just an excuse for Lan Xiang to step on the rock. Not only does he know it, but others should also know it.
Under such circumstances, those who go to ordinary people's homes to check people are not simply out of their minds, but are outright trying to disturb the people under the guise of Lan Xiang.
This kind of obvious misinterpretation of the Shangpai's intentions for his own benefit made Chen Taizhong extremely dissatisfied.
He doesn't think he is a good person, but he claims to be a good person and always has a reason for dealing with others. The status of ordinary people in the lower class in the pornographic world is already very low, and their lives are difficult. You still want to take the opportunity to harass,
Do you think my Lan Xiang knife is not fast?
He was originally a casual cultivator and had a very simple and ruthless complex. He couldn't stand such a thing. If he hadn't thought that he hadn't warned him beforehand, he really had the intention to kill someone.
This matter is not big, it is just that the three perpetrators were hung upside down for five days, just a hundred meters outside Qingchuan's silent gate, and ten times the compensation is not worth many spiritual stones.
However, the impact of this incident was extremely far-reaching, effective, and quickly expanded the influence of Lan Xiang's Panshi and laid a solid foundation for their future management.
During the five days of punishing these three people, many ordinary people came to watch the punishment. Local families were nothing in the eyes of the sect disciples, but there were so many cases of them bullying ordinary people that they were countless.
.
However, the disciples of the sect stood up for the common people and punished the local tyrants, which was something that ordinary people had never seen before.
He was a disciple of a sect that was so high up there that he couldn't even see the common people from the corner of his eye. He was always yelling at the disciples of the upper sect, so how could he stand up for ordinary people?
Even if it were left to the wise men among the common people, they would think that Lan Xiang was marching across mountains and rivers in the footsteps of a conqueror. This was a scene that had not been seen for hundreds of years and would inevitably bring about a bloody storm.
As low-level civilians in the Fenghuang world, it is normal for them to suffer some hardships. They just hope that these powerful people will not go too far and not kill too many people.
At this time, a master from the Lanxiang sect actually stepped forward to control the harassment of civilians. This is something that no one would dare to imagine - in the eyes of the sect disciples, we are not even considered ants.
During these five days, Lan Xiang's reputation quickly fermented, especially on the last day, when it reached its peak.
Hall Master Tao, who was in charge of the law hall of the Blue Rebels, came forward and ordered the three men to be put down. Then he said lightly, "Dongshang has an order. If there is any harassment against Li Shu next time, he will be killed without mercy!"
At that moment, Lan Xiang gained too much popularity, and in the years that followed, the Lan Xiang faction also enjoyed a steady stream of huge feedback.
In the eyes of Lan Xiang's disciples, Dongshang Ren's move cannot be said to be wrong, but it has no real meaning. How much help can ordinary people provide to everyone?
After hearing this, people from the Shen family and the Xili Gang hurriedly came to Dongshang people to plead guilty - because the robbery started with them, but it was only expanded by others.
Chen Taizhong happened to want to talk about this issue, but he did not reprimand the two families. He just said calmly: In principle, whatever force we attack in the future, the most we can do is to obtain their public property.
As a dignified businessman, he just said this without any further explanation.
However, it is conceivable that the process of dealing with those forces that refuse to surrender or have bad behavior will definitely not be as easy as what he said now - Lan Xiang's hands are not without blood.
In fact, if you analyze it carefully, his main meaning is only one: you can move only if I ask you to move, and to what extent you have to move, I have the final say. If you dare to make your own decisions, be careful, I will not be polite!
For the Shen family and the Xili Gang, and even for other forces participating in the war, this is not good news, but it is not that bad. Although they cannot harass Li Shu unscrupulously, once they take action against certain forces, they will
The results of the looting can be legalized - the superiors agreed to this.
It doesn't matter if it's less, as long as you have it, not to mention there are no debts, it's very cost-effective.
After putting down the three hanging guys, Lan Xiang announced the next day that he would temporarily set the camp in Qingchuan City and send three teams to the adjacent Bingquan, Yeshan and Jingyuan City.
Panshi Twelve Silences, Longshan occupies ten cities. If these three cities are captured, Longshan's territory will be reduced by half.
These three teams are composed of forces from Lingyang and Qingchuan cities. There are only four or five Lan Xiang disciples in each team. In other words, they are mainly local cultivators from Panshi, so-called agents.
War, isn’t that what we’re talking about?
At this point, the safety of Lan Xiang's disciples has been greatly guaranteed. Most of the disciples in the sect are either sitting in the main camp or patrolling Qingchuan meeting area to ensure the smooth flow of Lingyang reserve base, and at the same time guard Bingquan, Yeshan and Jingyuan
Silence in three directions.
Lan Xiang theoretically has the obligation to protect the local people who are fighting as servants, but there is no need to protect them so tightly. To put it bluntly, in a proxy war, these people are basically cannon fodder.
Chen Taizhong did not feel any guilt for using cannon fodder.
He is a very hard-hearted person, and he really doesn't have much affection for the disciples of the sect and the children of the family. The reason why he helps Lan Xiang is because of his cultivation roots, which leads to some responsibilities, which he cannot shirk.
As for other people's children, they will never die.
Chen Taizhong even hoped that if some blind guys could do something like cannon fodder, he could use a relatively strong posture to enter other Sanfro, or even more cities.
However, Lan Xiang's movements in Lingyang and Qingchuan were really a bit big. The forces in the other three neighboring cities had long been aware of this. When they entered, the forces in Bingquan, Yeshan and Jingyuan City
One after another came to respond.
In response to Lan Xiang's search request, various forces said that of course this matter must be completed under Lan Xiang's instructions, and the forces in Jingyuan City privately said that we can enshrine Lan Xiang after three years as promised by Lan Xiang.
Once the period is up, surrender completely.
This attitude is enough, but Yeshan is relatively barren, and there are only three families that can be considered relatively powerful. Those three families agreed to cooperate with the search and at the same time tactfully expressed that there were patrolling disciples from Longshan at home a while ago, and I hope you two
