Chapter 196 Rebuilding Demon Suppression County
Chapter 196 Rebuilding Demon Suppression County
"Now, think carefully about whether you want to use it or not."
Qinglong said this and didn't say anything more. After all, the decision was made by Gu Shijiu and he was just giving him a reminder.
Qinglong turned around and returned to the soul seal. Inside the secret room, Gu Shijiu was staring at the broken knife in a daze.
Gu Shijiu looked at it for a long time, the corner of his mouth moved slightly, he picked up the tree heart beside him and began to absorb it.
Qinglong smiled in the soul imprint and said nothing.
Others didn't know what he said, but Qinglong heard it. Gu Shijiu clearly said seven words.
“Even if there are thousands of people, I will still go.”
……
Demon-suppressing County.
At this time, the Demon-Suppressing County was no longer in the dire state it was in after the three Demon Saints self-destructed.
Under the leadership of Luo Yong, and with the support of the people of Bodhi Temple, the Zhao family, Gongsun Wen, Yuwen Nuo and the Hengdao Escort Agency, Zhenmo County is developing rapidly with each passing day.
At this time, Zhenmo County was bustling with people coming and going, and it was a prosperous scene.
Inside the newly built County Magistrate's Mansion in Zhenmo County, a group of people were sitting in the meeting room, discussing something.
"Emperor Du, Emperor Jiang, we are very grateful that you have come to support us in rebuilding the Demon Suppression County. You can also ask for anything you need. After all, this is also a transaction, so it is better to clearly mark the price."
The old abbot of Bodhi Temple spoke first, interrupting the discussion of the crowd.
"Old Abbot, we are here to help. Our only purpose is to rebuild the branch of Hengdao Escort Agency. We have no other purpose. Don't worry, Nineteen has already arranged everything. In addition, we plan to use the manor in the west of the city to rebuild the branch of Hengdao Escort Agency. Please approve it."
Du Sha's words made the old abbot's frowning brows relax a little, and he said softly:
"If that's the case, then there's no problem. It's just a piece of land in the west of the city. The garden next to it can also be allocated to the escort agency. Thank you for your support. Please thank Gu Sheng for me."
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Du Sha naturally had no objection. He sat on the chair and sipped tea quietly with Jiang Heng.
"Donor Zhao, what are your thoughts? Please speak out and discuss it."
The old monk spoke again and asked Zhao Yong who was standing beside him.
"Old monk, you are too unhappy. How can you have so many purposes? My niece has been trapped by monk Luo Yong, so it is natural for us to come and help. Besides, we are here to help my niece Hongling. It has nothing to do with you."
Luo Yong glanced at Luo Yong and Zhao Hongling, and spoke again:
"The only purpose is probably to build a few banks, but it doesn't matter. It will be the same if we buy a few shops in the future. The owner said when he came that he was here to help and didn't want anything in return. We, the Zhao family, will keep things simple. We will not do business this time."
After hearing what Zhao Yong said, the old monk's face became more and more promising. After all, the Zhao family was in business. There is a poem that says:
A word goes a long way.
The Bodhi Zhao family is busy with business.
Never broke a promise for a thousand years,
Be a trustworthy businessman who is as rich as a country.
The old abbot of Bodhi Temple expressed his belief in what the Zhao family said.
Next, the old monk was about to open his mouth to ask more questions, but he heard Gongsun Wen open his mouth and say directly:
"We don't have any requests. This is my sad place. My father's cenotaph is also buried here. I have no interest in this mere county. Yuwen Nuo and I will help you build the Demon Suppression County, recruit soldiers and build a demon-killing army to exterminate the demons. It will serve as a temporary base. This request is nothing, right?"
After hearing what Gongsun Wen said, the old monk naturally didn't say anything more. After all, Luo Yong became the governor of Zhenmo County because of an imperial edict, and Gongsun Wen and Yuwen Nuo established the Demon-Exterminating Army because of the same imperial edict. Their goals were different from his, so they should just do their own things.
After the Demon-Suppressing County is established, all of Bodhi Temple will be moved here and renamed Demon-Suppressing Temple. As long as it does not affect the Demon-Suppressing Temple's exclusive enjoyment of the Demon-Suppressing County's resources, it will not be considered an enemy.
The old monk thought for a moment and spoke again:
"When the demon-killing army is established, our Bodhi Temple will send Zen Master Yulin and a thousand monks to support you two. After all, we are monks, and it is our duty to kill demons and defend the way."
"And us, Great Elder Xiao Yao said that he would join the Demon-Slaying Army when it is established. He said that he is used to the cooperation between you. We have nothing to do, so Lao Jiang and I might as well join the Demon-Slaying Army and kill these demon cubs as soon as possible."
Du Sha also spoke.
Gongsun Wen and Yuwen Nuo immediately laughed.
Originally they thought that establishing the demon-slaying army this time would definitely not be smooth, as the establishment of the demon-slaying army last time was somewhat unrepeatable.
After all, the last time it was funded by the royal family and supported by heroes all over the world. He and others were able to take advantage of the opportunity to get a powerful demon-slaying army. It would be good enough to be able to gather tens of thousands of people this time.
Gongsun Wen and Yuwen Nuo didn't expect that they would get such a big unexpected gain from helping to rebuild Zhenmo County. They were overjoyed.
"My Zhao family will also fully support you two. I will go back home and discuss the specific level of support with my eldest brother. However, my Zhao family is not short of money. I can guarantee to bring a sum of military pay and food here. As I said before, I have to ask my eldest brother about the specific level of support."
Zhao Yong thought about it and then spoke.
"Thank you very much, everyone. Thank you very much."
Gongsun Wen thanked him gratefully.
"It is everyone's responsibility to eliminate demons and defend the Way. There is no need to thank you, County Magistrate Gongsun. This time, we will make sure those demons are wiped out!"
Jiang Heng said viciously from the side.
He had heard that his beloved disciple Gu Shijiu almost became a demon because of the self-destruction of the three demon saints. When Jiang Heng heard about this, he broke out in a cold sweat. Part of the reason he came here now was to avenge his beloved disciple.
He couldn't defeat the Demon Saints even if all of them were dead, but it would be okay to kill a few Demon Kings and Demon Emperors to help cheer him up. After all, it's good for people to stretch their muscles when they get old.
After hearing Jiang Heng's words, Yuwen Nuo and Gongsun Wen looked at each other and smiled, then nodded in agreement.
This man is Gu Sheng’s master. Although he is only at the early sixth level and both of them are at the seventh level, the mere fact that he is Gu Sheng’s master is enough for them to respect him. After all, that Gu Sheng turned a disaster into a blessing and broke through to the late eighth level. Even if he didn’t break through to the ninth level, he would still be one of the top saints.
Faced with a master with such human background, Gongsun Wen and Yuwen Nuo didn't dare to say much. They could only smile and nod in agreement.
"That's it. According to the current progress, in three months, the Demon Suppression County will definitely be more prosperous than before. In three months, the Demon Suppression Army will start recruiting soldiers. In half a year, we will go out to fight and strive to destroy the demons as quickly as possible!"
After the old monk finished speaking, everyone around him responded in unison:
"good!"
