Chapter 1157

Chapter 1157: Great Qin’s envoy’s order!

Time flew by, and in a flash, several days passed.

In the past few days, the biggest change in Dongzhang village was that every household was organizing funerals. The elderly were crying and the women and children were in despair.

The battle was too tragic. The great kun Empire was forced to retreat by the enemy great Luo Empire. None of the people from Dongzhang village who were captured at the front line came back alive.

As the war escalated, the price of grain rose and the currency depreciated. In the past, one Jin of rice cost 20 Wen, but now it had increased tenfold to 200 Wen. Even so, it still caused tens of thousands of people to fight for it.

Dongzhang village was no exception. It was not that no one had thought of escaping to a safe place, but it was said that the rebel army had already reached the prefecture. In addition, most of the people in Dongzhang village were the old, the weak, the disabled, women, and children. They were unwilling and unable to leave their homeland. “”

“Steward Wu is smart. He noticed that something was wrong and reminded me to buy a house in the capital. Once the war reached here, I would move my family to the capital.”

“But this is also a good thing. At least I can make a fortune before I leave ...”

Minister Zhang, the biggest magnate in Dongzhang village, smiled as he looked at the long line of people outside his house, who were just here to buy food.

He sold the moldy, old rice in the warehouse at 300 Wen per catty, not afraid that no one would buy it.

Old Zhang was also in the group buying food. He had spent all his savings and bought a bag of rice.

Before he left, he glared at Squire Zhang’s fat body and cursed in a low voice,””Bah, a beast that profited from a country’s disaster, he will die a terrible death sooner or later!“

At the entrance of Zhang’s iron shop.

A white-haired young man dressed in coarse cloth was sitting quietly in a daze. Cui Hua, who was wearing women’s clothes for the first time, stood behind him and gently combed his long hair with a comb.

......

It could be said that in the entire Dongzhang village, the one who was least affected was the white-haired youth.

Every day, he ate and slept. After the marriage was confirmed, old Zhang regarded him as a family member. Knowing that he had a big appetite, he would rather eat rice husks with his daughter to save some food.

Cui Hua combed his long hair while murmuring,””Blockhead, do you really not remember who you are?”

She had tried this scene countless times, but she could not get a response from the young man every time.

“Who am I?”

However, this time, the white-haired young man’s body trembled slightly as if he was asking a question in return. A look of confusion flashed in his eyes.

“You remember?”

Cui Hua’s hand movement stiffened, and then she walked in front of him, looking at his handsome face with a slightly nervous expression.

“Who am I?”

The white-haired young man continued to ask. His eyes began to struggle, as if he was in pain. Then, he held his head with both hands and shouted.

His change immediately frightened cui Hua. The latter hurriedly comforted him,””Don’t think about it if you can’t remember it, don’t think about it if you can’t remember it ...”

“Plop ...”

The young man fell to the ground and fainted on the spot.

Old Zhang, who had just returned with a bag of rice, rushed over.””What happened to him?”

“Father, Mu Mu seems to have remembered something, but he is in pain ...” Cui Hua’s eyes were red.

“Give me a hand and quickly carry him in.”

In the next few days, old Zhang tried to remind the white-haired young man of the past, but every time he mentioned it, the young man would scream as if he was possessed.

In the end, old Zhang simply stopped asking, and the young man returned to normal. He just sat at the door every day, either in a daze or writing something on the ground with a branch.

“Father, what did the blockhead write?” Cui Hua called out old Zhang and pointed to the word “Meng” on the ground.

“It looks like a simplified version of Meng ...”

Old Zhang said unconfidently. He had only studied in the private school for two years and did not know many words.

“What do you mean by cute?”

“I don’t know either ...”

……

Half a month was extremely difficult for everyone in Dongzhang village because the days were getting harder and harder. However, it was like a dream for the white-haired young man.

In this chaotic world, one of the good news was that the rebel army in the county had been eliminated.

Some people tried to move to the South, but they realized that the entire Lin ‘an Prefecture had been set up with checkpoints to prevent people from moving around. Even Minister Zhang from Dong Zhang village was no exception.

Some people tried to break through the checkpoint, but they were killed on the spot. The official statement to the outside world was to strictly investigate the spies and spies of the enemy.

Lin ‘an County, the Deputy Minister’s mansion.

The Deputy Minister, Lu Zhiyuan, knelt on the ground and said to an old eunuch in front of him with great respect,””This lowly official greets eunuch Wang!”

“Lord Lu, we’re out on an inspection tour in plain clothes. We’re here to deliver the Imperial edict to you.”

An old eunuch with a white face and no beard smiled and handed the Imperial edict to Lu Zhiyuan.””I won’t read it. It’s all up there. Only Lord Lu is allowed to see it. It can’t be leaked.”

Lu Zhiyuan stood up and received the Imperial edict with both hands. After taking a closer look, his entire body suddenly stiffened.

“Ten ... Ten thousand ghost devouring formation, kill ... Kill millions of people in Lin ‘an Prefecture ...”

He panted heavily like a wind box, his eyes full of disbelief.

That was millions of lives!

They were also the people under his jurisdiction!

“Lord Lu, His Majesty has high hopes for you. I believe you won’t let him down ...”

The old eunuch walked over and gently patted his shoulder.””To express his favor to you, just now, His Majesty has sent people to bring your family to the capital. It can be considered as leaving the war and basking in the emperor’s grace ...”

Lu Zhiyuan’s mind was buzzing as if he had been struck by lightning. His eyes became bloodshot and his entire body trembled.

A few seconds later, he knelt down with a trembling body and mumbled,””I ... I accept the decree ...”

“Very good!”

The old eunuch nodded with a smile.””To cooperate with Lord Lu, we’ve brought one person with us this time. We’ll be able to get twice the result with half the effort.”

As his voice fell, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the sealed house.

“Lord Lu, this is Lord suo from the fallen spirits sect. You must listen to any of his arrangements. At the same time, make sure that the 100000 strong Army is well-prepared and that no news of this is leaked ...”

……

North of Lin ‘an County, a thousand miles away.

A large tent was guarded by countless flags, and several figures with powerful auras were sitting in the tent.

“Everyone, the one blocking in front of us now is the great kun Empire’s Lin an County.”

A man in armor pointed at the huge sand map and said,””Although Lin ‘an Prefecture is only a County with a population of a million, it is the throat of the great kun. We must attack this place before we can attack the capital of the great kun ...”

Hearing his analysis, the others nodded in agreement. A grey-robed elder frowned and said,””It’s just a County, why don’t we attack now?”

“There is no rush. This time, we, the Luo Empire, are only cooperating in the battle. All military plans will follow the arrangements of the great Qin Empire’s emissaries ...”

“No.” The armored man shook his head slightly.”If everything goes as expected, the great Messenger will send out the order to attack before tomorrow night.”

“General Liang,” someone laughed,”what do you think the great Qin will reward us if we destroy the great kun?”

“I don’t know about that!“

The armored man shook his head and laughed,”however, I’m sure that great Qin will definitely treat us well.”

At this moment, a Messenger approached the tent. The messenger knelt down on one knee and said,””General Liang, the great Messenger has a special task for me to convey to you ...”

He took out a portrait from his bosom.

General Liang took it and opened it.

The person in the painting was a young man with deep eyes and a dignified expression. The most eye-catching thing about him was his white hair.

The people in the tent were suspicious.

General Liang frowned. He looked at the messenger kneeling on the ground and said,””Does the great Messenger have any other instructions?”

“The Lord Messenger said that if I encounter the person in the painting, I must report to him ...”

The messenger didn’t dare to hide anything and slowly said,””It’s said that this order was personally issued by great Qin’s Emperor, and those who know will be greatly rewarded!”

Everyone in the room gasped.

Great Qin’s Emperor!

Generous reward!

“You may leave.”

After the messenger left, general Liang took a deep breath and his eyes flickered.”Why does Sovereign Lord want to find this person?”
