Everyone in Gao Mansion was enjoying the lunch in a depressed state, and Gao Li gave them a brief description of the upcoming rebellion.
Unexpectedly, I learned that the current city lord suddenly revised the law last year, closed the city gates, and even took control of the prison. People could not leave the city at will. The crops and livestock were all owned by the city lord, but they were sold very cheaply. At first, the people thought this seemed to be a good thing, but as time went by, they found that since they could not grow their own crops and the merchants had no goods flowing in, their savings only declined but did not increase. This caused many conflicts, but even Reporting to the criminal government was of no avail.
He even asked: "Isn't there anyone who organized a resistance?"
Gao Pei said: "Half a year ago, we had a collective protest because we were forced to do so. However, all the Dragon Breathers (people with the ability to control energy) in the city were bought by the city lord at a high price, relying only on the fighting power of us ordinary people. , there is absolutely no way to recover.”
Gao Pei sighed deeply and continued: "After the failure of the resistance, the people in the city now have no useful weapons except knives for cutting vegetables, axes for splitting firewood, and dough sticks."
"Then what can we do? As you said, the help we can provide is minimal. Moreover, our actions since entering the city have probably been controlled."
The senior partner was about to answer when suddenly a voice of complaint came from outside the door: "Okay, Qin Zhuo and I were waiting for you outside, but you ended up eating and drinking here."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it, because in the impulse he forgot that he was in an unsafe place, and talking nonsense was dangerous.
"Little brother, don't blame yourself, please take a seat."
After the two sat down, Gao Pei suddenly stood up, raised the wine bottle in front of him, bowed deeply to the five members of the Qin family, and said:
"I, my high-ranking partner, pray for all the people in Fengya City, and hope that the Lord of Qin County will help in the future."
As soon as these words came out, everyone sitting here looked at Gao Pei with disbelief. At this time, he was like the dragon god descending, giving people an indescribable feeling.
Needless to say, Jing Ru and Qin Feng and Qin Yue, who arrived at Gao Mansion first, were the most shocked. If Gao Pei was just guessing, then this would be too accurate.
This also made Jing Ru and Qin Yue feel that Qin Feng had leaked the news. However, since the Gao family had already stated its intention, it should not harm a few people.
"How did you know our identities?" Jing Ru asked.
It seemed that this question touched Gao Pei's heart. His feet suddenly became weak and he almost fell down. Fortunately, he used a cane to support him.
However, as soon as Gao Pei stood firm, he knelt on the ground again. Everyone was so frightened that they quickly got up, only to find that he had knelt down on purpose.
Ru Ru hurriedly asked: "Master Gao, what are you doing?"
Gao Pei burst into tears and burst into tears. After a while, he said, "City Lord Qin, my real name is Gao You."
"Gao You, why are you like this?"
In Jing Ru's impression, Gao You was a very young and promising man, with an elegant conversation. Not only was his combat prowess among the best among his peers, he was also extremely strategic, and he had a handsome appearance.
But only two years later, the man who was once brave and resourceful has turned into the man who can't even stand still, as if he is entering old age.
"It's my subordinate who deserves the blame for not discovering the current city lord's conspiracy in time. My father passed away last year, and one of my subordinates took on the important responsibilities of the Gao family. However, the number of affairs in the city suddenly increased, which led to practicing too hastily and hurting myself."
"So have you resigned now?"
"Yes, the city lord has replaced all the senior officials in Fengya City."
"You said that the King of City Lord has a conspiracy, do you know what it is?"
"The king's city lord plans to rebel and attack Qin County."
Rebellion, this simple word, is so simple to say, but if you want to do it, you will face Qin County, which is almost in charge of the entire Wubian Kingdom's military strength. The Lord of Fengya City dared to do this, obviously he was fully prepared. If they want to get involved, they really have to consider whether they have the ability to handle it.
Gao You continued: "However, the city lord has been staying in the city recently, and I haven't heard of any actions by him. Moreover, the city lord's palace does not have many trusted troops, so we plan to take this opportunity to launch a resistance."
"So, we can break into the city lord's palace directly and arrest Wang Lan, but can we really succeed with the help of Gaofu alone?"
"City Lord Qin, please rest assured about this matter. Gaofu has united all the mansions in Fengya City, as well as many people, and also bribed many soldiers. It has been preparing for this resistance for half a year."
"Then when are you going to launch?"
"Today, starting from the robbery site."
Jing Ru asked in confusion: "How do you know when those merchants will be executed?"
Qin Ji rushed to say: "Oh, they are going to be publicly executed. The notice has been posted. At 14:00, everyone in the city is required to come to the Chengyang Terrace."
"Yes, we have just discussed with the Mu family. We are going to take all the tools that can hurt people, mix with the people, and then seize the execution ground."
"It seems that we are about to face a small war."
After an hour, the quiet Fengya City gradually became agitated, and every household was asked to participate in an execution representing "justice."
The execution platform is located in the center of Fengya City, so it is also called the central platform. On the round platform made of stones, there are several thick tree trunks erected, which are as thick as five people holding hands. These wooden stakes It is taken from the snow and is intended to suppress the souls of the dead with the severe cold.
The surface of these wooden piles is carved with a picture of high mountains and deep forests. A carved dragon is circling upward. The dragon's claws are long and sharp, and they can be retracted. There are grass ropes inside; the dragon's head has a pair of inverted tentacles, but They were actually two scimitars, just enough to cut off a person's shoulders and use them to cut off the prisoner's arms.
The dragon's mouth is wide open. When the prisoner is sentenced to death, a dragon ball will be spit out from the mouth. It is actually a round stone. Its weight is enough to crush a person's head.
In addition, prisoners can also be constricted, mutilated, and castrated. However, these wooden stakes are used to execute ordinary people, and they also have a resounding name-Dragon Prison Stakes.
For those who have attribute abilities and violate the law, they must use the exorcism pillar, which has numerous wooden spikes inserted into it. When a prisoner with attribute abilities is pierced by these spikes, the attribute energy will be forcibly released. , and can no longer gather energy.
The sun is scorching hot, but more and more people are gathering on the central platform of the city, and the relatively empty venue is also packed to the brim. Normally speaking, the number of people now far exceeds the number of people present at an execution under normal circumstances, but , the judge on the stage was very dissatisfied with the number of people here, because he knew very well how many people there were in Fengya City, and the number of people who arrived here was less than one-third.
The reason why everyone is required to be present is because the city staff have heard that the people want to rebel. When someone is absent without any reason, it can be concluded that he has the intention to rebel. However, the shortage of people is far more than expected, and the judge can only Order to postpone the search.
However, after a long time, the number of people still did not increase. The judge was furious and ordered a door-to-door search regardless of what accident might happen. However, he secretly sent someone to the city lord's palace to ask for help.
As the three powerful words were shouted, "Take prisoners", several shackled people slowly walked up to the central platform of the city. The jailers tied them to the pillars with dragon claw ropes and waited for the judge's order. His head will be smashed.
After waiting for a while, the judge saw that no one came yet. Just when he was about to give the order, a jailer ran out of the alley in a panic and shouted: "It's bad, someone is rebelling."
Before he finished speaking, crowds of people swarmed in from all directions. What they held in their hands were not serious weapons, but kitchen knives, firewood axes, hoes, dry forks, bamboo poles, and even wine cans and rice pots, some of which had just been taken. The Ge's.
The judge could no longer care about the execution at this time. He knew that the purpose of those people was not just to rob the execution ground, so he quickly ordered: "Stop them and kill them all without mercy."
However, as soon as a row of soldiers lined up, a soldier suddenly pulled out a short knife and stabbed the soldier next to him because he was pretending to be a civilian.
He was quickly killed, but it also bought time for others. The soldiers who were in a mess were beaten to death by the rebels.
At this time, an energy controller among the guards jumped out and struck the resisting team with a battle ax in his hand. Powerful rain attribute energy burst out. The characteristic of the rain attribute is its persistence, and it can be used to block other attributes. accumulation, and can form continuous attacks such as cold frost and hail.
This soldier belonged to the Xingfu, so he naturally respected his duties and showed no mercy to the rebels.
"Dang~", the tomahawk did not release energy, but was blocked by a war hammer, but it only consumed part of the energy. The tomahawk was better. The rain attribute energy formed raindrops and flew around. Don't think that these raindrops are weak and can't help the wind. If a strong person is allowed to feel the changes in energy, he will find that the raindrops are like chariots destroying the enemy's formation wantonly.
It was Qin Zhi who held the warhammer among the rebels. After all, he only had specialized level combat power, and the enemies he faced were at least elite level. The disparity in strength made him want to quit.
Suddenly, an arrow suddenly shot out from the crowd, interrupting the guards who continued to pursue. However, the arrow failed. The opponent did not have to hide, and the arrow whizzed past. Qin Yue could not believe his eyes. This distance, a distance that could be hit with eyes closed, unexpectedly failed.
Qin Ji quickly felt the gap in combat power between the two sides after seeing it, but he could only shout: "Jing Yue (in order to avoid being discovered by others, he is called Jing Yue), he has the attribute of rain and has strong interference ability. "
Qin Yue understood what he meant, and shot another arrow, 'Wind Wave'. The wind energy collided with the rain energy. The interference was indeed much smaller, but it was still easily dodged by the opponent.
'Strengthening Skill·Instant', lightning fell instantly, but the damage was negligible. However, at this time, the people swarmed him and tried to push him to the ground. In order to resist the impact with all his strength, the guard stopped releasing the rain attribute energy.
Qin Ji was so cruel that he pulled out Qin Yue's missed arrow and pierced the eyes of the guards. In the end, the guards fell one after another in the crowd of rebels. A man who was not afraid of death stood on the central platform of the city and untied They tied up the ropes that bound the merchants, but bowed respectfully to the dragon prison stake. In the hearts of the people, the dragon prison stake was a solemn and sacred instrument that could not be violated. However, the resistance felt that they were protecting the true rights of the Dragon God. Justice, the businessman who was saved was also framed. After sending the businessman down, the man shouted: "Everyone, as ordinary people, we used to live a carefree life and were self-sufficient in food and clothing. However, the Lord of the King City took possession of our land. Although it was sold at a low price, everyone has seen that Here, our belongings are decreasing every day, and they are all used in exchange for food. If this continues, we will eventually have nothing, so we must resist, overthrow the king's city lord, and restore everything in Fengya City to its original state."
