In front of all the people, I exposed the Fu family's family disgrace. Now their money is gone, their house is gone, their land is gone, and their family ties are all fake.

Fu Yifu is not a good person, otherwise the people in Huaicheng would not applaud him for his misfortune.

Can he raise a son for his first wife and lover out of kindness?

Absolutely not!

But he himself could not give birth to a son. After knowing this, he might swallow his anger and still recognize this son because no one would die.

I don't really care about their father-son relationship. It's time for us to go to the next stop, to find Guard Jia and the others.

The informant provided by the Fu family and his son was also guarding the city where Jia and the others were heading.

Huaicheng is a small city. The city where the Fu family is online is the only "provincial city" bordering other countries in the north.

The reinforcements invited by the Fu family came from this provincial capital.

This "provincial capital" is built among the mountains, on the top of the mountains, and many surrounding hills are within its jurisdiction.

Including the inn where we met Zhaixinglaoyuelou.

The north is sparsely populated and has a harsh climate in some areas.

Except for traffic arteries, the periphery of provincial cities, and the capital area, it is almost a deserted place.

The natural environment in those places is poor and it is difficult for ordinary people to survive.

The northernmost area is full of snow-capped mountains. Snowstorms fall all year round. The land is covered with ice and snow, and not an inch of land can be cultivated.

There are quite a few ferocious beasts and birds of prey, which come out to look for food during the day and at night.

The capital of Tengxue Kingdom is located at the junction of the north and south of the country. It has four distinct seasons. Farms can be farmed in the valleys and fruit trees can be planted on the mountains.

The capital city was carved out of a mountain, and the entire mountain became a city.

The palace on the top of the mountain faces the south wind and is protected from the north wind, offering beautiful views of the four seasons.

Yaocheng means looking at hometown in the distance, which means that although Tengxue people have settled in Pingqi Continent, they still remember their distant hometown.

My original plan was to go to a small town farther north, buy some land, and live a secluded life.

Now I have to do something first. We stayed in Huai City for three days with Ximen Wuhen.

When we're done, we'll take the rest of the Fu family's property and the money embezzled by the officials and leave.

I have plundered everything from the shop owner and his son, and I guarantee that not a penny will be left.

The clothes on his body were exchanged with the beggar, and the beggar pawned his fine clothes and used his capital to set up a stall and do small business.

Those "loyal" nursing homes and housekeepers are counting on us leaving so that they can take back the money distributed to the people. Anyway, the Fu family and his son have someone above them and can make a comeback at any time.

I guessed what they were planning, and asked August and the others to stay in Huaicheng secretly and keep an eye on them.

Before I left, I told those evil-minded guys that I had placed a curse on them, and if they had any evil thoughts, they would be tortured to death.

In fact, it is the "qi" I put into their bodies that is working.

I left Yueba and the others to protect the people. My "qi" can only punish the evildoers, but it cannot protect those harmed by them.

Yueba and the others came later and reported the situation to me.

We met up before entering the provincial capital. According to Yue Ba, the Fu family and his son were indeed evil-minded. When they saw us leaving, they immediately went to the homes of orphans and widowers who had received money to ask for property along with the nursing staff.

If they refused to give it, they would take away the widowed mother's children and threaten to sell them together, mother and son.

The evil energy in their hearts surged, and I could sense from a distance that the controlling "qi" threads were raging in their bodies. Several of them fell to the ground in pain, their screams were not human-like, their skin oozed blood, and their seven orifices bleed to death.

I used their blood to draw a big word "curse" on their foreheads.

This frightened them so much that they abandoned their children and ran away through the door.

Before leaving, the torch fell to the ground and accidentally lit the haystack. That family's shabby thatched house was on fire at the first moment.

The mother and son were trapped in the fire. Yueba and the others appeared in time, put out the fire and rescued the mother and son.

They waited for two more days in the city. They were frightened when they saw the Fu family's thugs. No one dared to harm anyone anymore, let alone talk to the Fu family's father and son.

relationship.

They packed up their belongings and fled out of Huaicheng overnight. The Fu family and his son could no longer find any help in the city.

They were penniless, and the people in the whole city hated them to the core, and no one came to help them.

The father and son even had a falling out. They had a big quarrel because of their life experiences and broke up on bad terms.

I'm afraid the days ahead for the two of us will be even more miserable.

Seeing that they were not doing well, Yueba and the others came back to me.

After several people have died, they naturally know how powerful it is and do not dare to risk their lives by trying the "curse" on their own.

"Have they contacted the people online?" We rested on a mountain path outside the provincial capital. The further north we went, the cooler the weather became, and we sat in the mountains enjoying the cool breeze.

"No, they don't dare, for fear of being silenced." Yue Ba's eavesdropping skills are top-notch.

"On the day you handed out the money, a group of people came twenty miles outside the city. They withdrew when they saw the fireworks. When we left Huai City, they never showed up again." Nan Jiu added.

"Master An, do you think we should bypass Magnolia City and send Yue Ba in to contact Jia Huwei and bring them out?" Manager Zhang suggested with a worried look on his face.

Well, since General Manager Zhang came out of Huaicheng, he has changed his address to me as Zhuang Zhuan.

I really wanted to correct him, but I didn't think it was necessary. It was just a title. Just call him whatever he likes.

"Why should we avoid it?" Ximen Wuhen asked.

"Our actions in Huaicheng were too big and may have attracted the attention of Magnolia City officials. We are entering the city at this time, in case we are ambushed..."

There are three provinces in Tengxue Country. On the surface, the governors of each province are officials appointed by the royal family, but in fact, they are more like princes who have been enfeoffed here.

***" This official position is called provincial official in Tengxue Kingdom.

He has great power and can directly decide on the appointment of local officials in the province without asking the emperor for instructions.

In other words, if you want to be an official in the province, it is useless to have a good relationship with the emperor. You must be appreciated by the provincial officials.

The city official in Huaicheng had such courage because his cousin was the concubine of the provincial official. Although she was not very favored, she could get him a "fat job".

The confession from the city official was made by Ximen Wuhen. The Fu family had no relationship with the provincial official, so the two of them were extremely frightened, fearing that they would be silenced.

The person they reported to was the provincial official's wife and brother.

The provincial officials of the three provinces of Tengxue Kingdom have already seen their information.

Feng Province is the largest province in the three provinces producing grains, fruits and vegetables, and the royal family attaches great importance to it.

Magnolia City is the provincial capital of Feng Province. It is surrounded by magnolia trees, hence the name of the city.

Provincial officials are hereditary from the Wan family, and it has been passed down to this generation, which is the seventh generation.

The ancestors of the Wan family dedicated their lives to the royal family. In order to save the life of the then crown prince, more than 200 members of the family were slaughtered.

Only the youngest son was left, who had just turned three years old. He was hidden in a bucket and sunk into a deep well to save his life.

The child was carried away by the prince who put down the rebellion. When the prince ascended the throne, the child lived with all the princes.

When he grew up, he was sent to Feng Province to become a city official, and his official position was hereditary.

Today, the provincial governor of Feng Province is Wan Shize, the "wonderful" seventh-generation descendant of the Wan family.

This man has no intention of being an official and loves painting, but he is really not a painter. The paintings he paints only have emotions and no skills.

But he is a perseverant person. The uglier he gets, the more he paints, and the more he paints, the uglier he becomes, and he never gives up.

Anyone who fawns over him can't be called fawning over him if he doesn't have a hundred or so ugly paintings by him in his home.

This is how Wan Shize's name as a great painter spread.

He concentrated on diamond painting and left official matters to his wife.

Wan Shize's wife is Mo Qiwei, the cousin of the reigning king of Tengxue Kingdom.

She handles provincial affairs on behalf of Wan Shize, and her brother has been secretly trafficking people for many years. The victim has no way to appeal, so it is impossible that he has nothing to do with her.

After Wan Shize inherited the post of provincial official, within a year, there were cases of missing persons in Huaicheng.

And they are all in the inn for no reason

There are as many as eight disappearances a year.

This data was not obtained from the memory of the original person, but from the confession of Master Huaicheng.

Wan Shize served as a provincial official for seven years, the official of Huaicheng served as a city official for six years, and the Fu family and his son opened an inn for six years.

The time is right, the city officials never record the missing person's report information, nor do they report it to the superiors.

Some victims jumped over the rank and went to Magnolia City to drum up their grievances. They were all imprisoned, some of the "honest" ones were released, and the "dishonest" ones were never heard from again.

It is simply wishful thinking to go to the capital to complain.

The victims were threatened and dared not speak out, so there were always unsuspecting travelers victimized in Huaicheng.

Their superiors already know that something happened to the Fu family and his son. They have enough time in the past few days to set up a dragnet and wait for us to walk in.

Manager Zhang is worried that we will walk into an enemy ambush. He and Yue Nanxiang don't know martial arts and will only become a burden to me.
