Back in time, before Xu Sanniang was attacked, blacksmith Zhang came to the south of the village and saw that Yang Tiangang was already standing by the Qinshui River.
"What's the matter with you coming out of me?" Blacksmith Zhang's tone was stiff, he had always disobeyed Yang Tiangang, but he had been pressed down by Yang Tiangang all these years.
Yang Tiangang smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that my son and daughter have started to practice, so I want to ask Brother Zhang, can you still refine weapons now?"
Blacksmith Zhang's face turned red when he heard this, and he said angrily: "If you dare to call out the spiritual materials prepared for your son, I will dare to refine them for you!"
Yang Tian Gang could see that Blacksmith Zhang actually didn't have much ability to refine tools, otherwise he wouldn't have tried to refine weapons again for so many years.
After all, this is related to Zhang Blacksmith's **, so he said: "There is actually only one thing to ask Brother Zhang to come out, that is, when the two villages merged, Brother Zhang must have seen it, and the village is imperative.
Blacksmith Zhang said: "You can't stop the village, so you want to be the village chief after the merger, and you want me to support you?"
Yang Tiangang said seriously: "Brother Zhang's eyes are like a torch, and Yang will not hide it from you, that's exactly what it is!"
Blacksmith Zhang said playfully: "You have given up the land of spiritual source to the Xiong family, and they will still embarrass you in this matter? After all, you and that Shi Jiutong are stronger and weaker at a glance!"
Yang Tiangang sighed and said: "Not necessarily, if it is compared to cultivation and achievements in governing the village, then I naturally don't take that Shi Jiutong seriously, but after all, that Shi Jiutong took refuge in the Xiong family early, although I have a spiritual source as a guarantee, but after all, it seems like a helpless move, compared to being trusted, I am not as good as Shi Jiutong."
Blacksmith Zhang said strangely: "Then what do you mean?"
Yang Tiangang smiled and said: "Don't be busy, Brother Zhang will understand next."
Blacksmith Zhang didn't know why, seeing that Yang Tiangang was there, when he stood side by side with him on the edge of the Qinshui River, after a while, a figure brushed the ground and rolled towards the outside of the village.
"Isn't this the third daughter of the Xu family, she went out in a hurry this night, and it seems that she can't sleep peacefully!" Blacksmith Zhang felt more and more interesting, and asked: "I think the real purpose of Brother Yang calling me here is here, I don't know where Brother Yang knows where the Xu family Sanniang is going?"
Yang Tiangang smiled and said: "Yu family!"
Blacksmith Zhang suddenly said: "So it's true, is her deceased husband really a distant relative of the Yu family?"
Yang Tiangang said: "It doesn't matter, the important thing is that her son is in the Yu family, and the Xu family has provided a lot of cultivation resources to the Yu family every year over the years, which even delayed Xu Erchen's time to advance to the martial arts realm.
Blacksmith Zhang glanced at Yang Tiangang, sighed, and said: "No wonder you are the village chief, and over the years, you have governed a remote mound village, everything in this village is under your control, I am not as good as you!"
Yang Tiangang smiled slightly and said: "Brother Zhang doesn't have to be humble, it can be seen that although Brother Zhang has the intention to compete with me, he has never deliberately blocked me from holding me back when it comes to the interests of the entire village, and has always put the interests of the majority of the people in the village first, which Yang admires."
Blacksmith Zhang snorted coldly and said: "You don't have to wear a high hat for me, I, Zhang Tie, know the importance in my heart, as long as you can win a fair opportunity for yourself tomorrow, I will naturally stand on your side, after all, your achievements as a village chief are obvious to all, and everyone can get better, if Shi Jiutong becomes a two-inch village head, hehe......"
"Hey," Yang Tiangang seemed to notice something, and suddenly smiled: "It's getting more and more interesting tonight, what kind of trouble is this Xu family going to make?"
Blacksmith Zhang's spiritual consciousness dispersed, and he couldn't help but laugh, and said: "Really, these aunts and nephews are not on the same road yet, hey, no, this kid is going to the other side of the river, that is the direction of Tushi Village!"
In the middle of the night road, Xu Sanniang, who was fighting with the man in black, was already too late when she found the flying catkins floating behind her.
"Spiritual magic, there are actually people ambushing!"
Xu Sanniang could only choose to break through at this time, but those drifting catkins swarmed like moths throwing fire the moment they noticed the aura vibrating around her.
Xu Sanniang raised a ball of flames all over her body, burning the flying catkins that flew around her, but those flying catkins stuck to her body like endless, and at the same time, she could feel that after being glued to these flying catkins, the spiritual essence in her body was like a wooden barrel seeping water, but it continued to wear and tear bit by bit.
"I can't drag it on any longer, otherwise I will really be consumed here, who wants to stop me, Yang Tiangang? The cultivation of the person in front of him is not right, and the spells and breath are not right; Could it be from the Xiong family? But how can they know my whereabouts?"
Although Xu Sanniang was full of doubts, she also made a quick decision, and the flying sword magic weapon in her hand slashed out three swords one after another, each of which could spread a chilling sword light around her body, and then the whole person rushed into the flying catkins.
Xu Sanniang could feel that the spiritual essence in her body was tilting outward like a flood of collapsing embankments, but she still gritted her teeth and insisted, not daring to look back and fight the man in black again.
Xu Sanniang felt a loosening in front of her, except for the flying catkins stained on the sword awn, there was no flying catkins floating around her, knowing that she had rushed out of the opponent's spiritual trap, so the sword light shook, and the flying catkins all over the sky turned into flying ash.
At this moment, the man in black behind him had already caught up, and the magic weapon in his hand was attacking his back, if it were normal, Xu Sanniang would have been able to deal with it calmly, but at this time she had just put the magic weapon imperial envoy behind her to block the incoming blow, but the spiritual essence in her body was empty, and only five or six percent of the ten percent of the force was used.
Xu Sanniang couldn't resist the force of the recoil from the magic weapon, and a wave of reverse blood spurted out when she opened her mouth, but she still took advantage of the other party's strength to cut a distance of more than ten feet all the way, and then held the position of the dantian with one hand, forcibly running the spiritual essence in her body, a cloud of turbid air rose under her feet, and the whole person rolled all the way to hundreds of feet away in a gust of wind.
The man in black watched Xu Sanniang's figure disappear into the night from a distance but did not chase after her, and vaguely another person appeared next to the man in black, but the dark night was unreal.
In Mengyu County, an old man with crane hair and a childlike face was leisurely walking in the garden with a teapot, and a kettle in his other hand, stopping from time to time to water the flowers beside him.
At this time, a hurried figure walked in from outside the garden, and a middle-aged man in his forties came all the way to the old man's side and said: "Master, news came from the Dading Hall that the Xiong family found a spiritual source place on the western mountain of Tuqiu Village, and the Xiong family is ready to send someone to receive it."
"Oh," the old man asked casually, "The land of the spiritual source? What did the village chief of the mound village say?"
The man said a little angrily: "What else, the Xiong family is powerful, that village is just a martial arts realm monk, how can it compete with the Xiong family, it's not that he gave up."
The old man seemed to remember something at this time, and muttered to himself: "Mound Village, Mound Village, how can it sound so familiar, by the way, what is the name of this village?"
The man was stunned for a moment and said: "The surname Yang, named Yang Tiangang, was originally famous in Mengyu County, his village has been famous for its wealth in recent years, and there are quite some political achievements, but unfortunately, it is also a cartilage, one by one rushing to join these powerful families, don't these people know that their position as village chief is appointed by Shaotian Sect, what they should really rely on is me Shao Tian Sect! Teacher, why can't we be like Uncle Zhu in Jinyu County or Master Wang in Chenyu County, and do something bold?"
Seeing that the man became more and more excited as he spoke, the old man smiled and said: "The frozen three feet is not a day's cold, the weakening of this sect's control over Yu County starts from these inconspicuous places in these villages and towns, and if you want to recover again, you must start from these inconspicuous places, Jinyu County is different from this county, and Chenyu County, hehe, you Master Wang Qian is unsettled, don't say it!"
The old man thought for a while, and then said: "As for this Yang Tiangang, I have some understanding of this person, this person ran away from Chenyu County in anger and came to this Mengyu County to create a situation alone,......"
The man sighed: "After all, the Xiong family is powerful, even if he is unwilling in his heart, he can't compete with the Xiong family alone!"
"So he needs a backer, a legitimate backer!"
The old man said as he put down the kettle in his hand, as if he understood something, and only turned to the man and said, "This may be an opportunity we have been waiting for!"
The man's eyes lit up and he said, "Teacher, have you finally decided to tear your face out of the Xiong family?"
The old man smiled and shook his head, saying: "Tear your face? How could it be, the old man just wants you to administer justice!"
"Administer justice?" The man was puzzled and said: "Please ask the teacher to clarify your doubts, what are we going to do to administer justice?"
The old man smiled and said: "The county government was originally supposed to administer justice, you just need to bring a team of Mengyu to the mound village tomorrow. This time you will go to see it in person on my behalf, remember, since you want to merge the village, there must be competition for the choice of village chief, you just need to remember to uphold justice."
The man still had a hint of confusion on his face, but Meng Yuwei was still surprised to hear it: "Teacher, do you really want to take Meng Yuwei there? Also, what about the spiritual source place?"
The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "Just go, since you are administering justice, you naturally can't weaken your momentum."
