Kill without mercy
The drizzle is continuous, nourishing the dry earth.
The originally dry weeds were soon wetted by drops of rain, causing the branches and leaves to overlap and slowly droop.
It creates a scene of lush green grass.
Chen An woke up leisurely from his sleep.
When he looked up out of the window, he found that it was already very bright.
Now that I am in the room, I can hear the voices of neighbors outside from time to time.
All signs indicate that it is getting late.
Chen An looked at his wife and daughter who were still sleeping soundly beside him, and helplessly stretched out his hand to wipe the drool from the corners of their mouths.
Then, he diffused his spiritual consciousness for a while.
I sensed that the concubines in the other two rooms were still sleeping soundly until now.
And he slept deeply.
"It seems that they worked too late last night and are so tired that they can't even get up now."
"You have to exercise some restraint in the future."
Thinking about it, Chen An gently dressed and got out of bed, planning to go to the kitchen to make breakfast for the first time in a long time.
It needs to be nutritionally balanced.
Boil some eggs.
Fry some fried dough sticks.
Grind a few bowls of soy milk.
Finally, cook a small pot of vegetable porridge, and that's basically it.
Presumably the three wives, concubines and daughters all like to eat it.
"Everyone in Green Willow Lane!"
"Come out quickly!"
"The elders of the Bamboo Leaf Gang Law Enforcement Hall, Zhao Qingshan, Elder Zhao, have something important to announce to everyone!"
Just as Chen An was about to push the door open and go out, a deafening shout suddenly came from outside.
The voice was very familiar. It sounded like the deacon of the Bamboo Leaf Gang who came to call everyone to the battlefield yesterday.
"Wow...wow...wow!"
Seeing that her daughter Chen Yue was woken up, she sat up from the bed and cried loudly.
Song Huaying immediately took her into her arms, and while stroking her head tenderly, she comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyue, mother is here."
"Ying'er, my husband, go out and have a look."
"Husband, be careful."
"Um."
As he spoke, Chen An gave his crying daughter a sleep aid, letting her fall asleep sweetly, and then pushed the door open and left the room.
When he came to the hall, he happened to meet Wen Zhiyun and Gu Xinyue coming out of the room. Apparently, both of them were awakened by the shouting just now.
"Yue'er, go to the kitchen and make some breakfast."
"Yun'er, come with me to go out and have a look."
Chen An looked at Wen Zhiyun and Gu Xinyue and said.
Gu Xinyue was very obedient. She said "ok" and walked to the kitchen. She did not follow her out because she was curious about what was going on outside.
Wen Zhiyun didn't say anything and silently followed Chen An out to see what was going on outside.
When the two came outside, residents were already standing on both sides of the alley.
In the middle of the alley, there were several monks from the Bamboo Leaf Gang.
Except for one extra old man, the others were all familiar faces from the Bamboo Leaf Gang who had been here yesterday.
"That old man is the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Bamboo Leaf Gang. He is a powerful foundation builder, and his strength ranks among the top five in the Bamboo Leaf Gang."
Wen Zhiyun leaned into Chen An's ear and whispered this information to him.
Chen An asked in a lowered voice with some curiosity:
"How did you know?"
"He has pursued me before."
"That's it."
Chen An nodded and said no more.
Seeing that most of the residents in Green Willow Lane had come out, the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Zhuye Gang, Elder Zhao, soon spoke in a rich voice:
"Everyone, the war between the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Villa is getting more and more intense now. I hope that everyone can lend a helping hand to the Bamboo Leaf Gang and join us on the battlefield to charge and kill the enemy and defeat the Black Iron Villa."
"Of course, the Bamboo Leaf Gang will not treat you badly, and will reward you based on your performance on the battlefield afterwards."
"The worst reward is one year of free rent in the core area."
"Those who perform well can even join the Bamboo Leaf Gang and become stewards or deacons."
Elder Zhao did not waste any nonsense. He went straight to the point and announced the benefits of being a mercenary of the Bamboo Leaf Gang.
After that, they quietly waited for the response from the residents of Green Willow Lane.
However, the interest counting time has passed.
Not only did the residents of Green Willow Lane not respond, many of them went back to their houses and closed the doors without giving any face.
What a joke!
No matter how generous the reward is, you still have to live to get it.
It’s not like everyone doesn’t know what’s going on on the battlefield right now.
In the past few days, the number of fallen monks in the late stage of Qi Refining alone has not been less than double digits.
With such danger, who would dare to become a mercenary?
Seeing that no one responded to his call, Elder Zhao narrowed his eyes.
Then he mobilized the spiritual power in his body to make his voice extremely penetrating:
"Starting from next month, the rent in Green Willow Lane will increase to 200 low-grade spiritual stones per month!"
What?!
Increased to 200 low-grade spiritual stones per month?
The residents of Green Willow Lane present all thought they had heard wrongly, and all looked shocked.
Soon, a resident came out and asked:
"Elder Zhao, is what you said true?"
"Absolutely true!"
Elder Zhao's voice was extremely majestic, and there was no room for resistance.
After confirming that the rent really has to be increased to 200 low-grade spiritual stones per month.
Almost all the residents of Green Willow Lane exploded.
"Elder Zhao, your rent increase is unethical. Now is a special period. Even if you don't lower the price, how can you double the price?"
"That's right, how can we afford such a huge increase?"
"This is forcing us to go to the battlefield in disguise, so we might as well move away."
"Elder Zhao, the Zhuye Gang increases the rent indiscriminately like this, which will damage the reputation of Zhuye Forest."
"It's really unreasonable."
Residents in Green Willow Lane protested one after another.
Everyone felt that the rent increase by the Zhuye Gang was very inconsistent with the rules and felt quite dissatisfied.
Elder Zhao was unmoved and said in an indifferent tone:
"This matter has been decided. When the next rent collection day comes, I will come to collect it in person. Not even a copper coin should be missing."
After saying that, he turned around and left with the people who came with him.
Some residents couldn't swallow this breath and began to loudly incite the people around them:
