Raising the Demon

Chapter 442
After Zi Baifeng ordered all the servants to go to the Shanshuiyuan to listen to the order, although Master Hua was not very willing, he still took the order and ran to inform.

Watching Mr. Hua leave, Zi Baifeng had nothing to do, so he decided to repair the Shanshui courtyard a little bit. He took a few steps back and forth, measured the entire courtyard, and considered what to prepare for the landscape courtyard. Except for the plaque, it needs to be changed. something.

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Hua came back panting, and said: "I have notified your order, Mr. Hua, but everyone is not here today, and they will all come tomorrow morning."

Zi Baifeng thought about it, and thought it would be fine tomorrow morning, so he didn't say any more. Afraid that he had something else to do, Master Hua turned around and was about to go into the warehouse, saying, "I'll go and sort out the map."

"Don't worry, I'll help you." Zi Baifeng said.

"My lord, you should stop coming. There is too much dust in the warehouse. You should go back and rest." Master Hua groaned inwardly. , things suddenly became complicated, his goal hadn't been achieved yet, so Zi Baifeng couldn't be delayed.

"Don't be afraid, I also have a lot of experience in organizing maps, and since I am a man of mountains and rivers, I should take a look at my maps anyway." Zi Baifeng said.

Of course he has to look at his own map. Although he has become a man of mountains and rivers, most of his territory is shrouded in fog. In game terms, he hasn't opened a map yet.

Mrs. Hua kept complaining, but he couldn't drive Zi Baifeng away, so he could only accompany him to rummage in the warehouse.

"You don't have to worry about me, you're busy with your own work, and I'll put back everything I've seen." Zi Baifeng said.

Mrs. Hua complained endlessly, what's the use of putting it back where it was?My plans were all disrupted.

In the evening, Zi Baifeng went back to the Zifu in disgrace. Before entering the Zifu, he heard a burst of laughter inside. A Hu Caijun, they were all laughing.

In addition, there is another annoying guy, it is Mr. Wen.

Since the young one was there, the old one was of course also there. Daguo Xianjun was like a proud peacock, pacing up and down in front of Zijian without stopping for a while.

He can be regarded as elated now, Mr. Wen surpassed Zi Baifeng in the provincial examination and became Xie Yuan, which made Zai Zijian very proud.

Seeing Zi Baifeng come in, the other people who were chatting and laughing with Mr. Wen immediately put on a straight face, pretending that nothing happened, looked around, looked around, and even whistled.

Zi Baifeng couldn't laugh or cry, he shook his head again and again.

He is not a stingy person. Since he lost, he lost, but it was not because he was inferior to Mr. Wen, but because he encountered something that he had to deal with.

"Brother Wen, congratulations." Zi Baifeng clasped his fists at Mr. Wen and said, "I lost this time, but Brother Wen won't be so lucky next time."

Zi Baifeng thought open-minded in his heart, but when Shinichi opened his mouth, he still had thorns.

Mr. Wen smiled and said nothing. He is the winner, so of course he has the right to keep silent.

"Hmph!" Zijian became displeased, and snatched the teacup from Daguo Xianjun, turned around and left with the teacup and teapot in his hand, which meant clearly that you are unwelcome guests, and you will not be given tea!
"I don't have to go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. Brother Wen never came to my place in the past. Why are you here today?" Zi Baifeng asked.

In the past, Daguo Xianjun often came here, but Mr. Wen rarely came, even if he was looking for Zi Baifeng again, he would let Daguo Xianjun pass on the message.

"I came here for Brother Qi." Young Master Wen said, "I have been appointed as the City Lord of Changliu City. I have come here recently to ask Brother Qi to go to Changliu with me."

Long stay?Zi Baifeng suddenly remembered the desolate city he had seen before, and later this city has completely turned into a dead city, and none of the residents in the city can escape. The current Changliu City is just an empty city. It's just a shell.

It seems that although Mr. Wen was appointed as the city lord, he was also secretly stumbled, which is almost equivalent to giving him a completely empty city, and the Mianxian Conference has not yet started, and the people who want to come to Yinglongzong have repaired the Juling University After the formation, the spirit-gathering formation will be restarted, and Changliu City will become a dead city again.

No, not necessarily.

Now that Zi Baifeng has owned the endless wilderness and has become a man of mountains and rivers, he can use other methods to stop Yinglongzong's spirit gathering formation.

Zi Baifeng was deep in thought, while Mr. Wen had already opened his mouth to Qi Hanshan, saying: "Brother Qi, I have always admired Brother Qi's calm demeanor, this time Zai Tianfu appointed me as the lord of Changliu City, it will definitely let me Relocate the residents and rebuild Changliu, although Changliu is just a desolate small town, I have wronged Brother Qi, but Brother Qi is the only great talent I have ever seen in my life, I hope Brother Qi can consider going with me."

This guy, poached the Dangui League?

However, Zi Baifeng would not take advantage of his friendship to kidnap Qi Hanshan, and Qi Hanshan is not someone who can be easily influenced by others. He did not rush to agree or deny, but frowned and said: "The current elder Staying here is not suitable for relocating immediately. I think Yinglongzong will restart the spirit gathering formation. At that time, those who move back will not have the protection of the formation, and will immediately be drawn from the spiritual energy and die in pain. good time."

"Of course I know, that's why I want Brother Qi to help me. I heard that Brother Qi used to be the diplomatic envoy who made Xia Junguo fearful. I hope Brother Qi can help me negotiate with Zai Tianfu in detail, or help me come up with a solution that can achieve the best of both worlds." way to..."

The best of both worlds?Zi Baifeng shook his head slightly, how can there be such a good thing in this world?

In the past few days, after Gao Shan'an left, the new Zhizhou has not arrived, and the post of Zhizhou is temporarily vacant.

Now that Gaozhi Prefecture is gone, the follow-up benefits that Zi Baifeng promised to him are naturally gone, and the preferential policies that Zi Baifeng had previously promised to help Zaitian Prefecture are also gone.

These days, Zi Baifeng doesn't buy land, doesn't pay, doesn't pay taxes, and doesn't even spend money.

Of course, this is because Zi Baifeng and the others have already bought all the land that should be bought. Since they don't need to sell Gaoshan An's favors, they naturally don't need to spend more money on unnecessary places.

Once Zi Baifeng no longer supports Zhizhou Mansion, the life of Zhizhou Mansion will become very tight. Gao Shan is not there, and the group of dragons has no leader. The refugees in the entire Zaitian Mansion immediately become a huge pressure that cannot be solved. launched.

Nowhere is willing to accept refugees, and the only place they can go is their original city.

But going back now is a dead word, and those refugees refuse to leave.

Zibaifeng watched coldly and did not intervene.

Without the extremely capable Gao Shan'an, Zai Tianfu would not be able to support them even if these refugees were kept here.

And if they really leave Zaitian Mansion and return to their hometown, Zi Baifeng is now a man of mountains and rivers, so he will naturally find a way to prevent the loss of spiritual energy and maintain their integrity.

So these days, Zibaifeng watched coldly, just planning to see what the Zhizhou government wanted to do.

Now that Zi Baifeng came back, Mr. Wen turned around and left without staying any longer.

Daguo Xianjun fought for a long time, but he didn't snatch his cup back, and left in dismay.

In the blink of an eye, only the members of the Dangui League and Hu Caijun were left in the entire courtyard.

In this township examination, everyone has achieved excellent results.

Of course, they were all in the top ten of the Xijing Township Examination at the beginning, but this time, the competition has become much fiercer. Young talents from all over the world have gathered together. It is far less easy than before to stand out, but everyone is also in the top five. Among the top ten, Qi Hanshan is still the one who performed better. He got No.7 in the exam. No wonder Mr. Wen is so thirsty for talent.

And Hu Caijun also got more than 30 results in the test. He is actually very satisfied with this result, and his smile has increased a lot in the past few days.

"Brother Zi, have you ever heard that there are rumors in the market that in two days, the Trust Zhizhou will arrive." Qi Hanshan said.

"Oh? I've never heard of this." Zi Baifeng stayed away from the limelight for the past two days and did not participate in the gathering of scholars, so the news was much more closed than theirs.

"At that time, we can formally arrange official positions. I really don't know what we will be." Chi Yanbai said excitedly.

Although he had also participated in the provincial examination, he hadn't really been an official, he just had a name, and now he was really going to be on his own, so he was naturally excited.

Qi Hanshan glared at him, this guy really doesn't open any pot, and Zi Baifeng's appointment can be said to be very unfair, no matter what benefits Zi Baifeng can get from it, it is still unfair to Zi Baifeng , Moreover, he should be Xie Yuan in the first place.

Chi Yanbai's ears were twisted by his elder sister, and he screamed again.

Everyone here laughed for a while, and Hu Caijun suddenly said, "I'm leaving."

Everyone turned their eyes and looked at Hu Caijun. Although they were not fellow travelers, they also fell in love with Hu Caijun, an upright guy after getting along with each other these days. They were very skeptical that Hu Caijun was really what Zi Baifeng said. that person?
It always feels impossible.

Hu Caijun is so upright now, how could he be that cunning guy before?

"Go? Where are you going? How good is it here? Why are you leaving?" Chi Yanbai was the most straightforward, chattering like a cannonball.

Hu Caijun just smiled wryly.

When he met the magic doctor, he once begged Zi Baifeng, hoping that Zi Baifeng could keep it a secret.

Since no one mentioned this matter, naturally no one would ask him, and if no one asked him, his secret would not be revealed.

About the magic doctor, about his devil heart, the less people know about it, the better.

And he is leaving now because he decided to give up the opportunity to become an official directly after the provincial examination, and save this opportunity until after the general examination and even the palace examination.

This is also an option.

"If you want to review, why not stay here, we can communicate with each other and improve together, that would be great." Qi Hanshan also persuaded.

Hu Caijun just shook his head.

In fact, for him now, the most important thing is not to go to college.

Although it is once every nine years to go to a university, but this time it is not successful, after all, there will be a next time.

However, the demonic heart implanted in his chest had already begun to show bad side effects. For the sake of his life, he had to find a way to take it out.

Zi Baifeng once told him that he had found traces of the magic doctor near Yinglongzong, so he decided to set off to the west to find the magic doctor.

During this period of time, he and Zi Baifeng have been secretly studying his demon heart, and he has basically mastered how to use his own demon heart, and Zi Baifeng also contacted Zhou Xing two days ago.

For Zhou Xing, Zi Baifeng and him are not acquainted with each other.

The two are far from being friends, but there is no need to become real enemies. Zi Baifeng roughly disclosed Hu Caijun's information to him. Zai Tianfu, this time he will leave with Hu Caijun.

"I have an idea. If Zhou Xing and I were implanted with a demonic heart, I'm afraid there will be many more people who have encountered the same thing." Hu Caijun said, "I want to find all of these people. Get organized and hunt down the magic doctor together."

Although Hu Caijun was forced by the devil's heart to tell the truth, he was still the Hu Caijun he was back then, the Hu Caijun who was the best at taking advantage of situations, the best at assessing the situation, and the most planning and scheming Hu Caijun.

"I wish you good luck, I will do my best to help you." Zi Baifeng can only promise this for the time being. In fact, he also has a reason to find a magic doctor, because he snatched the elder Qian Jian away, and Qian Jian The elder's Dao heart is Shuyue, that is, he took Shuyue away.

Zi Baifeng didn't meet Zhou Xing again, he gave Hu Caijun some money and a cloud boat, and said goodbye to him that night.

……

On the second day, Zi Baifeng came to the Shanshui Courtyard, and before he entered, he saw that there were people crowded outside the gate of the Shanshui Courtyard today.

"My lord, you are here." Master Hua was so busy that he was sweating profusely, pointing at Zi Baifeng and said, "This is our Lord Shanshuilang!"

"My lord!" One after another, there were chaotic greetings.

Some people bowed, some saluted, and some kowtowed. It was a mess.

But one thing is the same, everyone looks at him, full of inquiry and uneasiness.

In the past, their lives were very peaceful. They were good servants, but the servants of such poor yamen as Shanshuiyuan would not have a single labor for hundreds of years, and their lives were extremely peaceful.

But this time there was a new Shanshuilang, and they were summoned the next day. I don’t know what order they will give them. I’m really worried that this Shanshuilang ordered them to go to the deep mountains to measure. They are bound by the laws of the Celestial Dynasty and dare not violate them Otherwise, they will be deprived of their household registration and family property, and they will be sent to the army as slaves, but if they really go, then by measuring the cycle of mountains, rivers and rivers, they will probably spend half of their lives in it.

Among these people, after all, a large part of their ancestors were servants of the Shanshui Academy, or had been servants of the Shanshui Academy for hundreds of years. Their ancestors would also tell them about the specific operation of the Shanshui Academy. At this time, it is best not to be in a hurry.

"Hello everyone, folks." Zi Baifeng said, "I am a trustworthy man of Shanshui, and I don't say a word. I called everyone here today to re-map the landscape."

"Shanshuilang? Zibuyu? Where have I heard this name before?"

"The child is silent? Which child is silent?"

"Could it be Zibuyu, the No.2 student in the rural examination?"

"No, what I remember is another person called Zibuyu, who is Gui Moxuan's young master."

"The guy from Julinghua Mansion should be silent."

"It's Mr. Zi, so he has come to be a man of mountains and rivers!" Someone recognized Zi Baifeng.

"Young Master Zi has done so many good things for us, why did you come to be Shanshui Lang?"

"You don't know that, Mr. Zi has done so many good things for us, so he offended the officials, and that's why he was reprimanded here as a man of mountains and rivers."

"Young Master Zi is a talkative person, can we persuade him not to survey and map mountains and rivers? What's there to map with that thing? Aren't they all the same?" You said humanely.

These [-] servant households were engaged in all kinds of professions, and they also had different views and ideas. Just as Zi Baifeng read out his plan, everyone began to discuss it.

Zi Baifeng quietly listened to these people's discussions, and did not stop them, just listening quietly.

These three hundred households are very important to his plan. He has a very important task and needs these people to do it.

For Zi Baifeng, there is always a shortage of people in his hands, especially in Zaitian Mansion, whether it is those from the Yinglong Sect, the people from the Bird and Mouse View, or the people from the Jiqiao Sect, they are all foreigners. Those who do things are far less convenient than the locals.

Moreover, in the past few days, he has discovered something in his tiles. It may also be because his magic trick of raising monsters has continued to improve, so the tiles have given him more rewards.

"Everyone be quiet, be quiet." Someone in the crowd raised his voice, squeezed out of the crowd, waved his hands, and said.

It can be seen that this person is well-known and prestigious among the servants. He yelled a few words, and everyone stopped discussing and slowly fell silent.

"Huh? Uncle Dai, why are you here?" Zi Baifeng was stunned when he saw that person.

This person, Zi Baifeng is very familiar with, he has been helping his own house, is the backbone of his construction, and has a good personal relationship with Zijian, Zi Baifeng saw him drinking tea with Zijian several times.

This person is either someone else, or a carpenter wearing a head.

Dai Touer met when he and Zijian applied for the Jiqiao Sect. The two hit it off quite well, and often chatted when they were free.Dai Tou'er is very clear about his identity. Although he often insists on being a brother and brother with Zi Baifeng, he has always respected Zi Baifeng and never put his nose on the face. Zi Baifeng also has a very good impression of him.

"My lord, in fact, I am also a servant of our Shanshui Academy." Dai Touer said, "We all know that we will not suffer if we work with you. You can tell me what you want to do, my lord. I always wear more than 100 catties. I'll sell it to you."

Zi Baifeng shook his head with a smile. Although the wearer complimented him, he did not forget to trick himself, but what he said was indeed what Zi Baifeng wanted to say.

Of course, Zi Baifeng would not let these people work for nothing.
