I am in a chat group, and all my friends are the protagonists of the Sequel

Chapter 44 A Piece of Paper
Ji Zheng was speechless. Was this archery he wanted to watch?
It is the Great Thunder Sound Breathing Method.

However, while shooting arrows, Ji Zheng was actually comprehending the Great Thunder Sound Breathing Method. He was immersed in it, and his breathing suddenly vibrated with the sound of thunder.

Brush brush!
The body was washed by the sound of thunder, as if it was being struck by a thunder hammer. It was painful and numb, but soon it was followed by a period of comfort.

"And when activating the Great Thunder Sound Breathing Technique, the power becomes overbearing, as if it were accompanied by thunder sound."

Ji Zheng clenched his fist and there was a loud thundering sound. This Great Thunder Sound Breathing Method was really extraordinary.

It can not only be used to strengthen the body, but also to enhance attack power.

It was very domineering, as if it was directly driven by thunder, and the air exploded with a rumbling sound.

"But the only drawback is that it's too overbearing."

He had just recovered his stomach, but when he activated the Great Thunder Sound Breathing Method just now, he almost felt like he was going to be pierced by the thunder sound.

"Don't use the Great Thunder Sound Breathing Technique for too long at once unless necessary."

Of course, even if he wanted to, he couldn't, because this was just a fragment and it couldn't be activated for too long.

Ji Zheng continued training for a while.

The pretty maids had already prepared breakfast and lunch for Ji Zheng to enjoy at any time.

One dish after another fell into Ji Zheng's mouth.

And the windows facing the street outside were opened so that Ji Zheng could enjoy the bustling atmosphere of the street while eating.

But suddenly.

Ji Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at the dark shadow deep in the bluestone street. Rumbling, dozens of cavalrymen rushed past indifferently with military flags in their hands.

Along the way, any person will be hit and any obstacle will be destroyed.

It rushed straight past the gate of Ji's residence, knocking down people and horses along the way, causing them to wail.

"Ye Linwei from Prince Ye's Mansion?"

What happened? The place where he lived in Ji Mansion was Zhuque Street, where the nobles lived.

Anyone who is beaten to death could be a seventh-rank official at the prime minister's door.

Even if Ye Linwei is an elite member of the Ye Palace, he wouldn't dare to do this kind of thing often.

"Go and ask."

Ji Zheng felt that this was not a simple matter, so he asked someone to inquire about it and, at the same time, to clean up the mess for those dead officials.

After all, they are all good officials. Even if no one cares if blood is spilled on the streets, at least their family businesses need someone to help manage them.

After eating the whole family.

Ji Zheng learned the reason from his father who came back angrily.

"A major defeat on the front line?" Ji Zheng was surprised.

"Of course not, otherwise the people in Prince Ye's Mansion would be like crazy today, trying to eat up every household?"

"Damn it! We agreed to eat the extravagant wealth only once every ten years, but now it's only been five years and you can't resist anymore and want to confiscate our property, destroy our clan and eat our people." Ji Fugui was so angry that his face was shaking.

"The most important thing is that I didn't even receive the notice. You won't take us with you to dinner!"

Ji Fugui was so angry that he snatched his son's food and ate several bowls himself.

...Ji Zheng asked for the latest official report from someone else.

The Chongwu State has its own official gazette, and it is also one of the assets of their Ji Mansion.

Of course, this has now been taken away by the royal family, Ye Palace and other top palaces.

"Great Victory! King Ye's divine might is invincible, keeping the Jianwu Kingdom outside the border!"

"It seems that we didn't lose and the battlefield on the border was not lost." Ji Zheng flipped through the document and pondered.

After all, battle reports can be deceiving, but the battle lines will not.

Since we haven't lost the battle line, it shouldn't be considered a major defeat.

But Ji Fugui just sneered.

"Yes, the border line was not lost, but it just retreated seventy miles."

hiss.

Ji Zheng was shocked. Is this possible?

"Then Dad, will Prince Ye's Mansion also eat us?" Ji Zheng said seriously.

The Ye Palace has suffered such a severe defeat, there is no guarantee that they will not become desperate and wipe out the Ji Palace in advance.

In this case, he has to make some preparations in advance.

"That won't happen." Ji Fugui was not worried at all. "If the war drags on and becomes a stalemate, then they will eat us up."

"But if it's a major defeat, the royal family will have to consider their own lives first."

"After all, under normal circumstances, how would people of our level be treated after a war of annihilation?"

How to deal with it?

Ji Zheng recalled the records in history books.

"Kill all the men who are taller than the wheels. If they are not taller, put a few bricks under them and continue killing."

There is no such thing as not killing children.

After all, this is a fantasy world. It is normal for a child to be able to walk and jump at a very young age and have clear memories.

So do not kill, and hatred will never end.

"So don't worry too much. On the contrary, son, if you have the opportunity to go to a big sect, you should go early." "Otherwise, the Chongwu Kingdom may be gone in a while, and the royal family and the Ye Palace will be massacred and exterminated." Ji Fugui sighed.

This indicated that if Ji Zheng wanted to turn from evil to good, he should do it as soon as possible. When there were mountains of corpses and seas of blood and enough people had died, he could then join a major righteous sect.

...Ji Zheng couldn't say that there was really no one from a righteous sect behind him.

"Don't worry, Dad, nothing will happen." Ji Zheng comforted.

"Of course I won't. After all, my luck is much better than yours."

"As for you, I'm afraid you might be swallowed by a monster suddenly. Monster kings are most likely to appear in times of war." Ji Fugui said worriedly.

Ji Zheng was speechless. Why did his luck become so bad? It was obvious that bad luck would eventually turn into good luck, and he should never have bad luck again.

Next.

When the news of the great victory on the front line came, the city of Chongwu was filled with cheers.

But at the same time, there were also orders to seal the doors one after another, as the guards of the royal family and the top royal palaces came out in full force and put seals in front of the doors of various high-ranking officials.

Almost every day, a steady stream of silver was moved out of these mansions.

One good head after another was brought to the market to be chopped off, and the business of the steamed bun vendors on the street was so good that they could hardly keep up.

If you don't want to be beheaded, you have to provide money and manpower.

The private soldiers hidden in each mansion were taken away and sent to the front line to fight.

For a moment, the front line really held on and was not pushed back, and there was even a possibility of counterattack.

Ji Zheng was amazed by what he saw. He didn't know that the civilian power in Chongwu City was so strong.

And the most important thing is that their Ji family actually became rich.

"Hahaha, come on, Prince Ye, let's have a drink together." Ji Fugui smiled and drank with a handsome young man.

Ye Shijie clinked glasses with a smile. He was dressed in white and looked like the most dazzling person at the banquet. He had a pleasant conversation with the head of the Ji family.

"Uncle Ji, the logistics of the front line are now in your hands."

Just think about how lucrative a war logistics business is, so Ji Fugui was really happy.

Moreover, in Chongwu, the Ji Mansion is the only one that can prepare logistical supplies such as rice and grain the fastest.

Once the battle was won, Ji's business started to pick up.

Even Ji Zheng, the young master himself, found it magical.

It was clear that not long ago, Ye Shijie was greedy for the Ji family and wanted to take them as slaves.

"It was all because Shijie didn't see the situation clearly at the beginning. He deserves to be punished." Ye Shijie came over with a glass of wine, sincerely admitted his mistake to Ji Zheng, and put the crystal clear wine to his lips and drank it down in one gulp.

"it is good!"

Everyone else at the banquet nodded secretly. The prince of Ye Palace was a great man who could take on responsibilities and let go.

When you can eat, eat as much as you can; when you can't, you are willing to humble yourself and ask for help.

Ji Zheng's mouth twitched slightly, but he picked up the wine and drank it, and rejected Ye Shijie's invitation to go to the front line to make military achievements.

"Shijie was wrong before, but Shijie also said a few words from the heart. These days, no matter how much wealth you have, it is not as good as having soldiers in your own hands."

"As long as Brother Ji Zheng is willing, I am willing to persuade Father to give the Ji Mansion an army title. We can recruit as many troops as we want, up to 500,000 men."

This was an implicit expression that the emperor was willing to give the Ji family the right to divide the land. After all, it was easy to give up military power but difficult to take it back.

Not to mention the Ji family, which has money and food. Once the troops fall into their hands, there is basically no possibility of taking them back.

Ji Zheng sighed, if they continued like this, their Ji Mansion would be the next royal palace, and they would build a city and rename it Ji Wang City, and own thousands of miles of territory, which would be much better than being a businessman.

But Ji Zheng still refused.

He is not interested in this. With a chat group, it is impossible for him to stay in this small Chongwu country forever.

After the banquet.

Ji Zheng was thinking about the impact of this war, but found that his father was waiting for him in front of him at some point. His fat body blocked the door of his room, and he couldn't enter the house at all.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

Ji Zheng was speechless.

Ji Fugui turned around and dragged the fat on his belly back from the door, "It's not okay to come and see my son."

Ji Fugui smiled.

Okay, but Dad, please don't block the door.

Ji Zheng was helpless, but Ji Fugui took out a piece of paper from his arms, suddenly looked at it cautiously, and handed it to him.

Ji Zheng was puzzled.

"Son, your Uncle Li has finally gotten some information recently. In fact, the location of the major righteous sects is very far away from us."

"Only the Star Moon Divine Sect is the closest to us, only 30,000 miles away. Please give it some thought."

Ji Fugui said in a low voice, and then he quickly picked up the meat and ran away.

What are these?

I really don't have any disciples from the righteous sects here.

Ji Zheng was helpless. He returned to the house and spread out the paper. On it was what the top leaders of Chongwu State knew about the continent they were currently on.

After Ji Fugui obtained this information from the royal family, he immediately brought it back to Ji Zheng.
