Chapter 243 Bandits

Jiang Mu rode on a mountain trail, with mountains on both sides.

In fact, this is not a trail, but an official road, but it is not well built.

After leaving Fuyuan Town, Jiang Mu also cleaned up the bandits and monsters that had gathered again nearby.

This way, Fuyuan Town can be kept safe for several years. Anyway, for Jiang Mu, it is just a thought that can be done, just as a good deed.

Then he asked about the geographical conditions nearby, and Jiang Mu spent some silver to buy a good horse.

This Da Zhou is a dynasty of immortal cultivation. The cultivators trade with spirit stones, and mortals trade with gold, silver, and copper coins.

It is not just some gold and silver that can be used. In this way, those cultivators who can turn stones into gold can have unlimited wealth of mortals, and the court will be in inflation. Wouldn’t the monetary system collapse?

Therefore, only the currency that flows out of the treasury is valuable. Silver and copper coins have extraordinary forging technology, and it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to imitate them.

But Jiang Mu is not an ordinary cultivator.

So he shamelessly became a wealthy mortal and spent a huge sum of 20 taels of silver to buy a good horse.

He is now in the south of the Great Zhou Dynasty, facing the sea, in a place called Huangzhou County.

Jiang Mu has not decided where to go, but he has to go out for a walk.

He does not want to leave the Time Mark Continent for the time being, because one day here is equivalent to two days in the outside world, which can double the speed of improving his realm.

It is simply a good place tailor-made for cultivators like him who have no life limit.

Riding a fast horse and wearing cloth clothes, he looks like a free and easy person wandering around the world.

It's just that now is the time of war and chaos, and the official road is full of refugees. Riding a horse and wearing neat clothes, walking among them seems a bit different.

But fortunately, no one dared to come forward to embarrass Jiang Mu.

He just followed the flow for a few days and came to a city.

This is a county town under Huangzhou County.

The high city walls kept the refugees out.

Ordinary people needed a pass to go to different cities, and most refugees were those who could not pay taxes and whose land was confiscated to support their livelihoods, so they could not have a pass.

Without a pass, they could not enter the city.

This did have its benefits, and it could maintain public order in the city.

And now everyone knows that the Great Zhou is at war, and maintaining public order in the city is the limit. Where is the energy to help these refugees?

Maybe there is a policy to help refugees, but it may not be implemented in place.

Countless refugees huddled at the foot of the city wall, hoping to get some help.

Adults and children begged at the city gate and were driven away by officers and soldiers.

"All of you refugees, get out of the way, don't block the road!"

The officers and soldiers stationed on both sides of the city gate waved their swords and said impatiently: "You are refugees from other places, not from our Yun County, no one will care about you!"

The officers and soldiers were telling the truth.

Each place will only govern the people in that place. The fiscal revenue cannot afford it. Counties generally do not communicate with each other unless the superiors give orders, such as accepting refugees.

"We govern Yun County very well, but there are no refugees at all!"

Self-praise followed.

"There are no refugees, but why are there bandits?"

A sudden rough male voice sounded, followed by the sound of horse hooves from afar.

It can be heard that this voice contains spiritual power and is very loud.

In the distance, smoke and dust rose.

The leading man, wearing a long robe and a beard, rode a horse and walked in the front, with a flag raised behind him, on which were written the four characters "Taking Heaven's Law".

"It's a bandit!"

"Quick! Go quickly, close the city gate quickly!"

The garrisoned officers and soldiers were extremely panicked and immediately rushed into the city and closed the city gate.

A large number of soldiers also appeared on the top of the city, ready to fight.

The group of bandits stopped not far from the city gate, but did not go any further.

Those refugees also leaned against the city wall in panic.

"It is better to rely on ourselves than on these useless officials."

"Look at this city for yourself. The rich take care of the rich. They can't see the sufferings of the world. You are the ones who are displaced, but what caused this situation?"m.X520xs.Com

"It is this useless dynasty and these corrupt officials!"

"Yes, we are bandits, but we are thousands of times better than those officials who plunder and extort the people's fat!"

The leading man was very manly. He didn't look at the soldiers guarding the city at all, but only at the trembling refugees.

"The reason why there are no refugees in Yun County is because we are refugees!"

"Since the world is unfair, why don't you take up arms to seek justice for yourself?"

"Those who want to live can come to us, regardless of age."

"I can't guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing, but at least you will have a bite to eat and won't starve to death."

After saying this, the leading man stopped talking.

At first, these refugees looked at each other in bewilderment, not daring to believe what the bandit said.

One-sided words could not convince them.

What's more, they were a group of bandits.
