No one knew what He Nan did in the hut, and no one wanted to know.
Zheng Qulai and Wei Kui naturally heard the sound. When they arrived, the village was already in chaos.
Chief Zheng Dazhao clenched his steel teeth almost in anger, and his eyes were on fire, but he still endured it and looked at his men calmly: "What's going on?"
Before talking about the matter at hand, let me first introduce to you in detail the warlord Wang Zheng.
Zheng Qulai, twenty-seven years old, was a native of Lianglongtang.
Some people may think something is wrong, because when introducing a person's place of origin, most people introduce them by which county or city they are from. How could they just mention a depression that is no more than a hundred miles in radius?
But in fact, Zheng Qulai does not have a place of origin, and his name is not even on the census census of the Ministry of Household.
At first glance, it seems that this person is no ordinary cow, just a "black man", but in fact it is not the case at all.
The reason why Zheng Qulai is a "black household" is because he was born after his father fell into the clutches of a bandit, and he was born in the village of Guan Dazhai in Lianglongtang - you think about it in your mind, a bandit went out of his way to Are you registering a household registration for your son?
Zheng Qulai's father, Zheng Ye, was the king of robbers of the previous generation. This means that Zheng Qulai's name as the robber king was not created, but inherited.
The state has national laws, families have family rules, and the green forest certainly has its own rules. The biggest difference from the court and the righteous way is that "nepotism" rarely exists here.
Take the imperial bureaucracy as an example. Successful candidates in the imperial examination will recognize the examiner as their teacher after taking the examination. They themselves are the examiner's "disciple" and can serve them with the courtesy of a monarch, minister and father. Even if they become an official in the future, they must not forget their roots. , teachers must be congratulated during every festival, and examiners must support their students in order to consolidate their status and strength. This layer of trust and reference alone is already strong enough, let alone the more luxuriant and long-lasting relationships of clan, relatives, marriage, etc. that break the bones and connect the tendons.
The same is true for the great sects in the world. The positions of masters are basically passed down to direct disciples. No matter how great the martial arts of the outer sect disciples are, it is useless because your outer sects are unreliable and cannot trust you - even if the direct disciples sit on the There are also those who cheat after taking the position of leader, but it is more reliable to find gold in the vault than in the swill bucket.
But in the green woods, this doesn't work. In the green forest road, strength is respected. No matter how awesome your father is, if you can't do it, just get out of here. If you inherit your father's legacy and become a thief, no one will care about you. But it's not okay for a son to inherit his father's position. No one can tolerate your temper, not even the king of heaven. The reason is also very simple. Everyone is dead and white, who is afraid of whom? ? If you occupy the latrine and don't poop, there will naturally be people who can't hold it in and have stronger fists to kick you out. The better ones can even spare your life, but the more common ones will just hack you to death and rearrange your seats. .
I have to say, it's quite ironic.
Then again, since Lu Lin was not in favor of "inheriting" this idea, how did Zheng Qulai become the king of wugong officials?
It is really because his father Zheng Ye has made great contributions to the entire Green Forest Road - the creation of the names of the ten halls of Yama and the division of their respective territories were presided over by Zheng Ye.
Zheng Ye is not a good person, because a good person will never commit road robbery, but he cannot be regarded as a completely bad person, because the set of rules he formulated "The Ten Strongest People in the Green Forest" caused the emergence of a whole in the Green Forest Road. Sexual order, from another perspective, having order in the Green Forest Road is also a good thing for the people.
If we only talk about the number of subordinates under their respective subordinates, Xiaoshan Village of Green Faced Yama Cheng Qingshu can squeeze out at least half of them, but outside of this territory, who will regard him as a person?
The Tenth Palace of Yama does not just represent the ten powerful local snakes, but ten areas in the green forest of the prosperous country. The Tenth Palace of Yama itself may not have so many subordinates to serve, but in this "region" where he sits, Whether it is a group of thieves gathering in the Howling Mountain Forest or a solitary gangster, they are all his vassals. For example, if there is a conflict between two other villages within Zheng Qulai's sphere of influence, it will be left to Zheng Qulai to make a decision; and each king of hell has the power to decide whether each village within his sphere of influence should pay tribute on a monthly basis or on a monthly basis. Annual tribute, and the amount of money and grain paid each time.
In other words, it is not an exaggeration to say that these ten halls of Yama are the "co-owners of the green forest".
Of course, readers should not think that Zheng Ye or the Tenth Hall Yama are worthy of praise from the people because they have rectified the "order of the Green Forest Road" - because they have never been merciless when they harmed others.
All in all, Zheng Qulai was very lucky to be the only person among the Ten Halls of Yama who could sit in this position without relying on his strength due to the contribution of his father Zheng Ye.
But just because you sit on the throne of the Wuguan King without any effort does not mean that you can easily control these green forest men - you know, these people go to the mountains to be thieves either because they are too lazy to take the serious road, or because they are fierce and arrogant. Unruly. And this young second-generation ancestor is obviously unable to deal with these old fritters. Therefore, after seven years as the wuguan king, his control over the sphere of influence is less than half that when his father was in power. If Not only is he still the king of robbers in name, but he is probably no different from an ordinary bandit village.
The Ten Halls of Yama is not an honorary title, nor is it a lifelong title. Instead, it is selected once every ten years by comparing factors such as "wisdom, force, and thief's heart." Zheng Ye died within his "term of office". At that time, a group of old brothers could look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face, and made an exception to allow Zheng Lailai to inherit the title of King of the Covenant. But what about the next ten years? The old almanac has torn out more than 3,000 pages, and these old kings of hell have also changed. The Clay Bodhisattva cannot save himself when he crosses the river, so how can he still have the energy to protect your position?
Of course, Zheng Lailai didn't want to give up his position in despair like a lost dog. Although he was somewhat trying to catch up when he took the position, now he is at the beginning of the peak period of his life, so he must firmly hold the position firmly. Seize every opportunity that will benefit him to "refill his cup".
what chance? This is the opportunity.
Wei Kui picked two kings of hell in succession, which can be said to be famous in the world. Even Lu Ding, who was half-retreating, already knew about it, but the righteous people in the world still far underestimated the importance of this matter in the hearts of the green forest people. ——In one sentence, Yama will be silent after hearing it, and the minions will shed tears after hearing it. "The green forest in the world will fight for it together." '
King Guang of Qin, the head of the Ten Palaces of Hell, issued the "King of Hell Post" and directly stated, "Whoever can defeat this Wei Kui will be able to take the position of the next Ten Palaces of Yama." Although this post of the King of Hell was received by the Green Forest Man The widespread response, but still the same sentence, that is, the response - Today's Ten Palaces of Yama are more or less a bit old and young, old and young. Unexpectedly, Taishan Wang Wu is already ranked in the martial arts ranking among the Ten Palaces of Yama. The top three are strong players, and Ping Ping Wang Zhong Baihu is really not weak, aren't they all just like dirt? King Qin Guang himself was a little afraid of this Wei Kui. King Chu Jiang, who was the strongest in martial arts, said that he wanted to spar with this Wei Kui - but Ya's territory is in the southernmost part of Sheng Kingdom. Wei Kui couldn't take the photo from above.
In fact, when the spy who was on the lookout at first brought back the news about Wei Kui, Zheng Qulai never thought about looking for trouble. After all, the throne of the King of Hell was more important than life. Zheng Qulai knew very well that he was not a master with strong martial arts skills. If they really fought, he might be killed instantly. Moreover, he did not have anyone who could control the situation, otherwise he would not be able to get better and better. After turning around, it has reached the point where the call of the King of Hell is in name only. It's better to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and pretend that you don't know how Wei defeated his own territory, and whoever you want to provoke is provoked.
"Brother Zheng..." He Nan touched his chin and ran his tongue over his lips: "Why are you hiding someone?"
The person He Nan was talking about was naturally the guy who was detained in the warehouse and suspected of being alive. The power of "lattice blasting" is far greater than imagined. It seems that these bandits really don't pay much attention to their livelihood. In short, in addition to the latrines, several surrounding warehouses are undoubtedly ventilated. People like pigs and lambs can also show their true colors.
He Nan didn't think that much. He just thought that Zheng Qulai imprisoned this person in the warehouse and ordered people to guard him strictly. Naturally, he couldn't just sit idly by and watch this person die in vain, so he caused such a big incident. The action, it seems now, is to take control of the situation.
Wei Kui and He Nan seemed to have a good understanding of each other. At this time, He Nan's handleless knife was held by Wei Kui, and it was naturally placed on Zheng Qulai's neck.
"Brother He Xian, Brother Wei, do you really want to be enemies with Zheng?" Although Zheng Qulai is not very talented, his courage is really extraordinary. At this time, Wei Kui held him hostage, but he spoke extremely calmly.
Although this "dog son of the tiger father" was not very powerful in terms of force, he was very resourceful. The investigation he conducted not only targeted Wei Kui alone, but also included He Nan who was very close to Wei Kui. This of course further dissuaded Zheng Qulai. Wei Kui's idea of "using force" was just that. No matter how small his official position was, He Nan was still registered in the capital. If He Nan was really killed, it might be more troublesome than killing Wei Kui.
But things took a turn for the better when Zheng Qulai, or the people from the village of Yanwang, robbed a person.
What was tied up in the warehouse was a young man, a good-looking, luxuriously dressed but unkempt young man. It looked like he had been imprisoned for several days.
The young man's name is Chen Yanbi. Unfortunately, he is also a second-generation ancestor.
