Chapter 59 Zhenguo

The destruction of the mist forest of fog and rain is not only the most precious heart stone, but also the fog and rain elves and other treasure materials produced, and the prices have also skyrocketed.

The fog rain elves are of no use to ordinary Confucian scholars. They are just purchased by the government of Wu to use clouds and rain to help droughts. Each fog rain elves is worth about 100,000 taels of silver, while a merchant in Sitong Town purchases it for 80,000 taels of silver. But now, as soon as the news of the fog rain mysterious forest is damaged, the price of each fog rain elves soared to 300,000 taels of silver.

Previously, Su Lin arrested eleven fog rain elves in one breath. These slayers were all seen and they were all very jealous. At that time, he was worried about Su Lin and Hong Liyu's holy words and reputation, and there was no legitimate reason to ask for them.

But now they seem that Su Lin and Hong Liyu are both dead in the mist and mist forest. The eleven mist and rain eleven in the Qiankun bag are in Yuan Mu's hands. Someone immediately had a bad idea. After gathering more than a dozen people, they killed the Yuan family's medicine shop and forced Yuan Mu to hand over all the mist and rain elves.

Among them, of course, Huang Tong from Huanggui County is the most enthusiastic and radical. He is the descendant of famous masters among the hundreds of schools of thought. He was deeply influenced by famous masters. After a twist of his mind, he said to Yuan Mu with confidence: "Yuan Mu, you are just the son of a great scholar. How can you occupy these eleven fog rain elves by one? At that time, so many of us also tried to capture fog rain elves, how could you monopolize them by yourself?"

After saying this, Huang Tong deliberately hid some important information, such as those of them arresting the fog and rain elves, assisting Lin Wanjing, and did not help Su Lin's actions at all. Now they just want to come over and get a share of the pie.

"Huang Tong, don't be talking nonsense. When Brother Su and Brother Hong were arresting the fog rain elves, you were not present. They arrived later and did not work hard. Why do you come and ask me for the fog rain elves? Don't think that your famous sophistry is just afraid of you. These fog rain elves were exchanged for Brother Su and Brother Hong's lives. If I exchange silver, I will definitely settle Brother Su and Brother Hong's house."

Yuan Mu was originally a little unconfident in front of Huang Tong, but when he remembered the scene where Su Lin defended Huang Tong for himself, Yuan Mu also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the truth was on his side, he would not be afraid of Huang Tong's famous sophistry.

These eleven fog and rain elves are worth more than 3 million taels at the current price of 300,000 taels per one. Even for some great scholarly families, it is a huge sum of money. Even the literary status of the Jinshi Hanlin will be moved when you see it.

"Hmph! Sophistry? Yuan Mu, I think you are sophistry? So many of us are all the leaders of the counties and famous families. Will they collectively frame you?" Huang Tong has so many classmates who support him, so he is naturally not afraid. He pointed at Yuan Mu with his chest, "If you have the ability, go to Grand Secretary Hong and two editors to judge. See who is right and who is wrong?"

"Go and go! Right and wrong are twists and turns, and they are in the hearts of the people."

Yuan Mu knew that Huang Tong and others might not give up, so he simply agreed to go to the Grand Secretary Hong Jingzhang to reason with him.

"Miss Dong, please beg for the change. Here we will be here later. After I come to the front of Grand Secretary Hong with them to distinguish right from wrong, I will send you back to Fengle County, Neiguan. I will only take one of these eleven fog and rain elves, and I will give the rest half to Grand Secretary Hong and take half back to the Su family."

After the last storm of "no friend is worse than oneself" in the heart-killing storm, Yuan Mu is now more determined and his thoughts are more refined. He will not be so easily shaken by Huang Tong. After explaining Dong Zijin with a blank eyes, Huang Tong and others hugged him to the city gate to find Hong Jingzhang to reason.

Dong Zijin, who stayed in the medicinal shop, felt ashamed when he heard the news of Su Lin's death, and murmured: "Impossible! Impossible! Brother Su Lin, Zijin is still watching you, the top scorer in high school, waiting for you to carry a sedan chair to marry Zijin..."

"Miss! I also heard news about the destruction of the mist and rain forest. It seems that my son-in-law is really...ah..."

Tang Zhongshun, the shopkeeper of the Dong family pharmacy shop, also sighed and wanted to comfort his lady, but it was okay if he didn't say it. When he said that, Dong Zijin suddenly became excited, and then said firmly: "Uncle Tang, prepare a good horse for me. I want to go to Wuyu Mizhilin to find Brother Su Lin. I don't believe that Brother Su Lin died like this."

"No...no! Miss, the mist and rain forest is in the wilderness, with barbarians and demons rampant, and this Sitong Town is already dangerous enough. If something happens to the lady, I... how can I explain to the master..."

Tang Zhongshun quickly advised, but Dong Zijin didn't listen at all. He looked firmly at Su Lin, and ran out while Tang Zhongshun was not paying attention.

At the gate of Sitong Town, it was not yet time for the agreed noon, but Hong Jingzhang, Zhao Zhi and Su Yuan had already arrived on the scene, and many of the first-time boys came early with the horses.

"Mr. Hong, it is said that this time the fog and rain forest explosion was completely razed to the ground. Fortunately, most of the children in the case have returned safely, and the losses are not too great."

Zhao Zhi was in a very good mood. Since he heard Su Lin die in the misty forest yesterday, the depression in his heart was wiped out, and he felt a sense of relief that he would be revenge.

"The loss is not big? Su Lin, Hong Liyu, and two geniuses who have learned wisdom have fallen in the mist and rain forest. Zhao Xiu, do you still say that the loss is not big? What's your intention?" Su Yuan looked angry and finally found Su Lin, the son of Su Jingtian, and he was also a genius who has learned wisdom. If he absorbed the Su clan, it would be the hope of the Su clan's future, but who would have thought that he would die in such a trial.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk... Su Xiu, you can't say that. I, Zhao Zhi, was also very sad about the misfortune of the two leaders of Su Lin and Hong Liyu, especially Hong Liyu is also the son and nephew of Lord Hong. But the boys who came back said that when the Storm of Hearts broke out, Su Lin and Hong Liyu had time to escape, but Su Lin was not greedy and did not know that the sky was high and the earth was thick. Not only did he not know how to escape, he tried to search for the Storm of Hearts of Hearts of Hearts. Hong Liyu, the son and nephew of Lord Hong Liyu, was also implicated by Su Lin and chased him... If it weren't for Su Lin's greed, there wouldn't be any trouble!"

Zhao Zhi learned about the incident from Huang Tong who came back yesterday, and today he added fuel to the fire and said in front of Hong Jingzhang.

Sure enough, Hong Jingzhang's face was very bad. Although he knew that Hong Liyu was the saint of the demon clan and that the demon clan had reached the level of literary status of Juren, he also knew that the power of the Heart Storm was, especially this time, even his Grand Secretary's literary status could not resist such huge power.

The demon king of the Jade Rabbit Demon Clan Li Luo has great kindness to him and even the entire Hong family. Now Li Luo has entrusted the saint Li Yu to him, but who would have thought that something happened in just a few days ago. Hong Jingzhang feels guilty now and is considering how to apologize to Li Luo.

Now when I heard that it was because of Su Lin's greed and boldness that Hong Liyu was involved in his death. Naturally, I felt very dissatisfied with it. Moreover, based on his understanding of Su Lin's behavior, Su Lin was indeed a bold and impulsive personality that would not surrender to people and things.

At this moment, Huang Tong and a group of the archers pulled Yuan Mu and shouted, "Please ask Grand Secretary Hong and the two editors to take charge of the fog and rain elves together, but Yuan Mu is bold and wants to embezzle them."

"What? The harvest of everyone working together, Yuan Mu, you are so brave, you actually want to take it alone?"

Hong Jingzhang was in a bad mood, so he immediately glared at Yuan Mu and asked, "What's going on?"

"Unforgivable! Grand Secretary Hong, Huang Tong was just talking nonsense. These eleven fog rain elves were captured by Brother Su and Brother Hong, and they had nothing to do with others. Brother Su asked me to keep it, but unfortunately... I can no longer see Brother Su and Brother Hong anymore. Seeing that Brother Su and Brother Hong were jealous, Huang Tong took his mind to the fog rain elves they exchanged for their lives. Half of the silver exchanged for these fog rain elves will be handed over to Grand Secretary Hong, and half of it will be handed over to Brother Su's wife, Miss Dong, who has not passed the door, to bring back to the Su family..."

Yuan Mu was not timid and revealed the truth word by word, but his heart was filled with guilt for Su Lin and Hong Liyu. After their deaths, it would be too embarrassing if he could not even protect the fog and rain elf.

"Is this really the case?"

Hong Jingzhang already understood in his heart that it was probably as Yuan Mu said, Huang Tong was actually making a sophistry, so he sternly questioned other cases.

"Master Hong, it is true that these fog rain elves were captured by Brother Su. But on that day, I led a group of the case leaders and spent a huge price to arrange the holy power of "not being able to escape" and "strike all in one net". I had already captured five fog rain elves, but who knew that Brother Su and Brother Hong's magical powers were together, and these five fog rain elves broke through the net and were caught by Brother Su and the others."

Lin Wanjing hesitated for a moment, stood up and bowed, "Really speaking, these fog rain elves were indeed captured by Brother Su and Brother Hong, so we should not have any ideas. But now Brother Su and Brother Hong have been killed, and our case leaders have suffered a lot in the fog rain forest to capture the fog rain elves, so we also asked Grand Secretary Hong to make the decision, take out five fog rain elves and share them with other cases."

"Yes! Grand Secretary Hong, this time I spent half a brick of holy power, but I got nothing!"

"Support Lin Case Head and Grand Secretary Hong, these gains should be divided equally by all Case Heads."

"After all, we didn't drive the fog rain elves over, how could Su Lin and Hong Liyu be able to catch it? In this way, we have also made great efforts."

...

With Lin Wanjing leading the speech, more cases were ready to go. Now the price of the fog rain elves has tripled. Even if there are more than 60 fog rain elves, each person can get 50,000 or 60,000 taels of silver for no reason, which is not a small amount!

Although the children in these cases use thoughtful words to enlighten their wisdom, their enlightened words are mottled and mixed, and many of them are not pure thoughts such as "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness". Moreover, even if the Confucian scholars who use these thoughts to enlighten their wisdom have insufficient literary status and thoughts, they are extremely likely to be shaken by external objects and temptations.

"this……"

Seeing so many of the leaders of the case, Hong Jingzhang was also embarrassed. Su Lin and Hong Liyu were both dead, so it was reasonable to share the fog rain elves they captured to other leaders of the case who went with him.

"Mr. Hong, these children in the case are all the leaders of all counties. We don't need to ignore their demands for Su Lin and Hong Liyu, who have already died, right? Besides, if we hand over these fog rain elves in the name of Su Lin and Hong Liyu, we can only get the silver reward without fame. The eleven fog rain elves have 1,100 fame and fortune. It will be helpful to them evenly to share these children in the case. I believe that the elders of the family behind them will also be grateful to Lord Hong for this..."

Seeing Hong Jingzhang hesitating, Zhao Zhi took advantage of the situation to instigate him.

"Then...it can only be like this...to make these fog and rain..."

Zhao Zhi's words were indeed useful. Hong Jingzhang was a little moved when he was about to divide these fog and rain elves into each of the case's children, suddenly, a dazzling holy light flashed in the sky. The entire territory of Wu State, along with the Sitong Town not far from Wu State Pass, was slightly shaken for a moment. Hong Jingzhang's face changed drastically, and then he shouted: "Zhenguo!Zhenguo! This... this is the birth of poetry and escaping!"
