Small town adventure

Chapter 183 Zhang Dazi
The old man nodded, and asked indifferently without answering: "The Taoist priest is very knowledgeable, do you know a word called "drilling piles"?"

Although the old man uttered these words in a flat tone, when Taoist Master Qingyang heard the three words "drilling piles", he couldn't help being smart all over his body, opened his mouth for a long time, and said everything Not coming out, the muscles on his face twitched like a spasm...

The reason why that village became a "village of unjust ghosts" was caused by a "living pile". It was this disaster that killed more than 500 people in the entire village overnight, and all of them became unjust deaths. The ghost!

This story happened more than 80 years ago, during the warlord period of the Republic of China.

With Yuan Shikai's death, China fell into chaos, and a "warlord melee period" that lasted for more than ten years began.China is divided into many spheres of influence by the generals who hold military power. There are more than 100 generals, large and small, who have their own spheres of influence, or are called warlords in English.Some of them control one or two regions, some control one province, and powerful ones control two or even three provinces.Although there is still a national government in Beijing, even though foreign governments also recognize this government, what they control is only within the range that Beijing's warlords can deter.

In a small place in the south, there is such a group of bandits who usually rob houses and do all kinds of evil.At this time, the whole country was in chaos, and warlords from all walks of life fought and killed each other all day long, vying for each other's territory, all wanting to develop their own power.Bigger warlords always have big dreams, and they all dream of being able to unify the whole of China and then become emperor themselves.Although the smaller warlords do not have such a grand plan to dominate, they still want to dominate one side. It is also an excellent thing to be the emperor of a small place.

The group of bandits mentioned just now has a leader named Zhang Dazi. Although this man is insidious and cunning, he does all kinds of evil, but he also has some scheming. Seeing that the whole world is fighting and grabbing each other's territory, some bandits with a lot of people on the nearby mountains He immediately changed into a military uniform, occupied a nearby county town, and became the local emperor there.Although he has a small number of troops, with only a dozen or so men and a dozen broken guns under his command, he also dreams of becoming the overlord of one side.So he led his group of brothers down the mountain, and first occupied a large village called Mapo Village. The reason for occupying this village was that most of the people in this village were wealthy, and there were many rich people. Another reason is that the geographical environment of the village is relatively superior, surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, if there is a war, it can be said to be an important military place that can be attacked and defended.
