"Yes, it's Fujue Village." The woman who handed over the token said with certainty.
The woman in purple nodded and handed the three tokens to Qin Yu's three brothers: "These three identity tokens must be recognized with blood, so don't lose them. As for you going to Fujue Village..."
The woman in purple frowned and looked at the three people again: "Did you not give some spirit stones to the people in the assigned villages?"
Qin Yu's heart moved.
He still remembered that when he met Song Hui and Shitian, Shitian and his wife asked Qin Yu and the others to bribe the people who distributed the villages, but the three Qin Yu brothers didn't care at all. Now it seems that this 'Fujue Village' should be an extremely poor village.
"Yes, why, this village is far away from Yuchi City, and the divine energy cannot be absorbed violently, right?" Qin Yu asked with a smile.
"You know." The woman in purple looked at Qin Yu in surprise, "You know and you do this on purpose?"
Seeing that the young man in front of him was still smiling calmly at this stage, the woman in purple was surprised. Then she returned to her indifference: "Fujue Village is not only remote and unable to absorb the energy of the gods. There is also Something even worse."
Qin Yu and the others couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.
Seeing the three people like this, the woman in purple felt comfortable, and did not give Qin Yu and the others a chance to ask: "Gao Xia Qi, come in quickly, there are three newly promoted ascendants here who are going to be arranged to Fujue Village. This task is left to you. .”
I saw a blond young man wearing a battle armor walking in. He frowned and looked at the woman in purple: "You mean Fujue Village?"
"Yes, why, you don't want to?" The woman in purple looked at Gao Xiaqi.
Gao Xiaqi snorted coldly: "I'm not afraid of that yet."
"If you have the ability, don't change the appearance of the standard armor in the army." In the room, the woman in white who was arranging the jade slips said with a smile. Gao Xiaqi ignored him, but looked at Qin Yu and the others: "You three, follow me."
****
Qin Yu and the others had just left the mine with Gao Xia Qi when they saw a scene that surprised them - Gao Xia Qi's standard battle armor changed, and finally turned into a robe and draped it around his body.
Qin Yu and the three of them all recalled what the woman in white said when they left - 'Don't change the appearance of the standard armor in the army if you have the ability'.
"Brother Gao, why did you change this standard armor?" Qin Yu asked.
Gao Xiaqi glanced at Qin Yu. Instead he asked: "Are you three newcomers who have just ascended for a thousand years?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Qin Yu asked doubtfully.
Hou Fei and Hei Yu also stared at Gao Xia Qi. And Gao Xiaqi looked at Qin Yu for a long time in disbelief: "It's nothing, but in just one thousand years, these two people have reached the intermediate level of god-men, and you... I can't even see clearly. You must have reached the advanced level of god-men." Come on. How is this possible? It has only been a thousand years. Could it be that... you ascended from the Tianxin Realm?"
"Those who ascended from the Tianxin Realm?" Qin Yu and the others were confused.
However, Gao Xiaqi sighed to himself: "There are some differences between the places in the lower realm and the cosmic space of the same level. The weak places in the lower realm, such as the Green Demon Realm, take hundreds of millions of years to ascend. But the strong Tianxin Realm, it takes hundreds of years to ascend. Then one flew up."
The three Qin Yu brothers looked at each other.
cosmic space. The mortal world is on the same level, the world of immortals, demons, monsters, dinosaurs and other cosmic spaces are also on the same level, and the divine world is on the same level. There are many cosmic spaces at the same level as the world of immortals, demons and monsters, but even at the same level, there are still differences in strength and weakness.
One ascends every few hundred years, and the frequency is indeed very high.
Under normal circumstances in the world of immortals, demons and monsters, including the Dark Star Realm, it takes about a million years for someone to ascend.
"There are some extremely powerful people in the Tianxin Realm who have ascended to the God Realm for a thousand years and are at the intermediate level of gods... I see that the three of you are so powerful. That's why I think you are from the Tianxin Realm." Gao Xiaqi said with a smile.
Qin Yu smiled lightly and said: "There are many spaces in the lower realm, and some people who practice fast are not necessarily from the Tianxin Realm."
"Hey, Brother Gao, why did you change the appearance of the armor on your body?" Hou Fei asked aloud. Qin Yu and Hei Yu also looked at Gao Xia Qi, which was why they were confused.
Gao Xiaqi looked at Qin Yu and the others and said helplessly: "Don't you three know that it is very important to allocate ascended people to the village from the beginning? You should pay a little hard work. In this way, you will not be assigned. There are some remote villages, such as this Fujue Village."
"What happened to Fujue Village? What does it have to do with the appearance of your armor?" Hou Fei continued to ask.
You should be careful. Villages like Fujue Village in the most remote areas not only have to pay taxes to the city lord's mansion every thousand years, but also to the leaders of some powerful forces! "
"A powerful leader?" Qin Yu and the other three looked at each other.
"It's the Mountain King!" Gao Xiaqi said clearly. "Think about it, Yuchi City can only house 20 million people, and there are 200 million people outside. It's more difficult for people outside. But among the people who ascended, who in the original universe is not a generational hero? So many people went to the deserted areas and took over the mountains to become kings!"
Black Feather frowned, but Hou Fei blurted out: "Hey, aren't you becoming a robber?"
Qin Yu understood it very well.
Masters who rise one by one are always at the bottom. It is normal for some people to resist.
"The city lord's palace doesn't care?" Qin Yu asked.
Gao Xiaqi sneered: "The City Lord's Mansion? The City Lord's Mansion only shows up occasionally, as long as these forces do not affect the rule of the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion will not manage the land. Moreover, the city in the God Realm is a fixed place, and the population of the God Realm is There are too many, they are fighting each other, and the city lord’s palace is too lazy to take care of the land.”
"It's not easy to be the king of the mountain. There are also gods in the villages. If those who are the king of the mountain are forced too hard, won't the residents of the village resist and take action?" Qin Yu said.
Gao Xiaqi sighed and said: "You are wrong. There are many people who dominate the mountains and become kings, but the forces that dare to make the villages pay taxes on a regular basis are all big forces. Generally speaking, small forces do not dare to do this."
"How big is the big force?" Qin Yu frowned.
Gao Xiaqi sighed: "There are three major forces outside Yuchi City. If the city lord's palace is ruthless, it can indeed get rid of these three major forces. But the city lord's palace cannot be ruthless. Because if you want to destroy these three major forces, you will at least die. After losing dozens of gods, do you think the city lord's mansion, which only has more than a hundred masters of gods in total, is willing to pay such a huge price?"
Qin Yu's three brothers were all surprised.
To destroy these three forces, dozens of gods must die?
"As far as I know, Fujue Village is the area covered by the 'Black Dragon Pond' force among the three major forces. And the leader of the Black Dragon Pond is within the jurisdiction of Yuchi City, and he is also one of the top five super masters!" Gao Xia Qi sighed.
Qin Yu and the others suddenly had no intention of resisting.
Why should a top five super master within the jurisdiction of Yuchi City become the leader of a party?
"You also understand why I want to change the appearance of the standard armor, right? Although the 'Black Dragon Pond' will not really be the enemy of the city lord's mansion, they like to bully us little people. As for you ordinary people, they At most, robbery will not hurt his life." Gao Xiaqi said helplessly.
…
From the Spirit Stone Mine, Qin Yu and the others, led by Gao Xia Qi, walked for three days and nights before reaching the remote Fujue Village. At the same time, on the way, Qin Yu also learned about things in the area under the jurisdiction of Yuchi City.
The closer you are to Yuchi City, the safer you are, while the areas farther away from Yuchi City fall under the influence of major bandits. The positions of these robbers who dominate the mountain are also different.
For example, the three major forces in the "Black Dragon Pool" category. Dare to collect taxes from major villages in remote areas. They are naturally the most prosperous, while some small forces rely on robbery and killing.
A remote village like Fujue Village is in bad luck. Not only does it have to pay taxes to the city lord's mansion, it also has to pay taxes to Black Dragon Pond.
Fujue Village occupies an extremely vast area. At a glance, there are at least thousands of houses. The three Qin Yu brothers nodded secretly, at least this Fujue Village was not too desolate.
"Fujue Village has a population of over 10,000. It is considered a small village. Large villages have a population of hundreds of thousands." Gao Xiaqi sighed.
Qin Yu immediately understood that there were 200 million people outside Yuchi City. With 200 million people, a village with more than 10,000 people was considered a small village.
"This is the village chief's home. The village chief will tell you many things." Gao Xiaqi walked to a village with a familiar door. The door of the village was open. There were three middle-aged men talking and laughing in the village courtyard.
Gao Xiaqi walked in and said to the middle-aged man who was the tallest among them: "Village Chief Fan Xu, you should have received the notice a long time ago. These are the three newly arranged ascendants. From today on, they are You are a member of Fujue Village."
Fan Xu is at least two meters tall, with a slender figure and a very quiet appearance.
Holding a feather fan. Fan Xu walked towards Qin Yu and the others with a smile: "I am Fan Xu, the head of Fujue Village, and you are Qin Yu, Hou Fei, and Hei Yu. These are some things you need to pay attention to in the village, and I have prepared them for you. "As he said this, Fan Xu handed over a jade slip.
Qin Yu glanced at the jade slip with his spiritual consciousness, then raised his hand and said: "Village Chief, we three brothers will not disturb you. We say goodbye. Brother Gao Xiaqi, thank you for sending us here. Say goodbye." The three brothers Qin Yu were very happy. He simply left.
"Hey, it's strange that he wasn't surprised at all when he saw that he had to pay taxes twice in my jade slip. He just left like that." Fan Xu said doubtfully, fanning his feather fan, and then looked at Gao Xiaqi.
"Yes, I told them on the way." Gao Xiaqi said with a smile, "Village Chief Fan Xu, I'll take my leave too."
Fan Xu nodded, then turned back and walked towards his two friends, muttering: "Three brothers? It is rare for three brothers to ascend at the same time."
After seeing the jade slip, Qin Yu knew some important things.
The tax is paid once every thousand years. The city lord pays a tax of 1,000 low-grade divine stones every 1,000 years, while the Black Dragon Pond side pays a tax of 1,500 low-grade divine stones every 1,000 years.
There are three main ways for ordinary people to earn low-grade spirit stones. One is to go to the spirit stone mines like ascended people to mine. After a thousand years, apart from paying for the earth spirit stones, there will usually be a lot left over. The second is to search for spiritual stones in abandoned mines. If you are lucky, you can also find them. The third way is to work.
Working for the city lord's palace, working for some powerful people, there are many kinds of jobs, and the salary is paid in spirit stones.
Of course, there are a few things besides these three. For example, go to a deserted area to find some rare materials, or precious herbs, ores, etc., which can be sold in the city.
It's just that this kind of work is more dangerous, and finding precious herbs and materials requires shrewd eyesight, which is not something ordinary people can do.
****
Qin Yu and the others settled down in Fujue Village quietly. The three of them easily built a village. Normally, many people from Fujue Village would come over to say hello. Qin Yu and the others spent most of their time in Jiang Lanjie. I occasionally come out every day and get to know many people in the village.
Soon, three hundred years passed.
The three Qin Yu brothers lived a very peaceful life, but on this day, the day to pay taxes came. The tax payment this time is to the "Black Dragon Pond" local tax. The tax payment date in Black Dragon Pond and the tax payment date in the City Lord's Mansion are different.
The entire Fujue Village gathered in front of the village chief's house. No one dared not pay the 'Black Dragon Pond' land tax or hand it over to the City Lord's Mansion, which would only punish them. But the people in Black Dragon Pond will directly kill people who don't pay taxes.
"Brother Liliao, how are you?" The two men walking side by side started talking.
"Xing Yuan, I really have no choice. Ziyun's parents are too stubborn. Although Ziyun has feelings for you, Ziyun's parents insist that you can buy a house in the mainland of Yuchi City before marrying their daughter off. Here you go." Lilio said helplessly.
Xing Yuan let out a long sigh.
This Xing Yuan was the previous monarch of the Dark Star Realm. Lord Jin Xing of the Dark Star Realm was only an ordinary person in the God Realm. He was assigned here without bribing the people in the assigned village.
When they were in the mine, Qin Yu and the others came out very infrequently and never met Xing Yuan.
"Two million low-grade divine stones, even if you kill me, they won't be enough." Xing Yuan clenched his fists, feeling anxious.
He had never had any feelings in the Dark Star Realm for so many years, and when he arrived in the God Realm, he had never thought about it. He just wanted to practice hard. But after meeting Zi, the man and woman became completely crazy and fell into madness.
Ziyun grew up in the God Realm. Ziyun's parents have deep-rooted ideas. They want their daughter to live a good life in the future and don't need to worry about being in Fujue Village. He was determined to let Xing Yuan buy a house in Yuchi City and then negotiate.
"Xing Yuan, don't be too persistent. We men should practice hard and become gods one day. How can the woman who wants to marry you break the threshold?" Li Liao comforted, but Li Liao himself also knew that becoming a god Difficulty.
Xing Yuan sighed: "Brother Liliao, you don't understand my mood."
Once you fall into a relationship, you can't get out even if you want to.
Suddenly a familiar voice came.
"Hey, Brother Xing Yuan?"
Xing Yuan couldn't help but look up and saw three young men walking over together. He recognized the smile and temperament of the leading man at once and said in surprise: "Liu Xing, it's you. Have you also arrived in the God Realm?"
