Chapter 259 Ni Wenjun's Gift
"It's like this, Jiusi. The new dynasty has just been established, the treasury is empty, and there is not enough food and grass. Zhao Pusheng and I are fighting for these food and grass, and these food and grass are all under the control of the emperor surnamed Xu."

"I, the eldest brother, have a quick temper and I didn't get along with that guy surnamed Xu, which led to him giving you very little food when distributing food and grass. I was so angry that I argued with him, but I didn't expect that guy surnamed Xu would complain."

"I went to Old Peng and reported that I was disobedient and disrespectful to him as the emperor. He will no longer be able to continue his duties as emperor and will abdicate the throne to me."

"Of course Old Peng refused to do that. After a lot of consolation, he finally came up with an idea. They won't share the captured grain this time. We want to recruit soldiers and expand the army. So we should find a way to raise grain ourselves. How many soldiers we can recruit at that time depends on us."

"I never thought that Zhao Pusheng had colluded with Ming Yuzhen in Shuzhong. Ming Yuzhen provided him with 200,000 dan of grain and grass."

"Brother, I really have no other choice. I came here to see if you can think of a way to lend me some food so that I won't lose face."

Ni Wenjun felt a little embarrassed. After all, as the eldest brother, it was always a bit embarrassing to ask his younger brother for help.

After hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said, "Brother, what are you talking about? It's just some food. I'll lend it to you."

Ni Wenjun looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Really?"

Chen Jie said: "What is our relationship? What does a little food mean to you? How much does brother want?"

Ni Wenjun said: "It doesn't need to be much, two hundred thousand stones will be enough."

Chen Jie said, "That's impossible. With 400,000 yuan, we have to beat them anyway. We can't let my brother lose face."

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun was immediately overjoyed and said, "Haha, is it really 94, 400,000 shi?"

Chen Jie said: "What else can I say to my elder brother? What's mine is his."

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun looked at Chen Jie and said, "Brother, I have nothing else to say about what you said. Big brother, it's also yours."

Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said, "Brother Ni, do you want to take all the food away right away?"

Ni Wenjun said: "I haven't recruited any soldiers yet, and I have nowhere to put them if I leave all of a sudden. It just so happens that my defense zone is very close to you. When I need food, you can just deliver it to me."

After hearing this, Chen Jie had an idea in his mind. If 400,000 dan of grain were needed at once, Chen Jie would probably need to raise some resources.

However, if he could give himself a month or two, Chen Jie wouldn't even have to use his two million shi of grain. He could just let Shen Wansan's Suzhou caravan transport the grain here.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said, "Brother, what is the defense zone you just mentioned?"

Ni Wenjun said: "Oh, it's Qianjiang Prefecture and Tianmen Prefecture next to your Huangzhou Prefecture. These two are my brother's defense areas."

After hearing this, Chen Jie pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, do you have any thoughts on the source of troops?"

Ni Wenjun frowned and said, "I don't know. Let's find a way to raise the money."

Chen Jie said again: "Brother, what do you think about the overlapping of troops, horses and food supplies in the future?"

Ni Wenjun frowned and said, "Brother, I haven't thought about this either."

“How to maintain local stability?”

Ni Wenjun shook his head and said he didn’t know.

“How to develop business?”

Ni Wenjun was confused. What was going on? Who could know? The city had been taken. He really had no way to handle these things.

Seeing Ni Wenjun like this, Chen Jie was silent for a moment and said, "Brother, why haven't you prepared anything yet? If this is the case, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to govern these two mansions?"

Ni Wenjun frowned and said, "Brother, you are right. I was born in a humble family, so how could I have learned these things? I am good at fighting, but this?"

Ni Wenjun had a bitter face, but suddenly looked at Chen Jie and said, "Brother, are we good brothers?"

Chen Jie said: "Brother, what are you talking about? Of course we are good brothers."

Ni Wenjun said: "If you are a good brother, it will be easy. You are good at governance. I see that you have managed Huangzhou Prefecture in an orderly manner. In this way, my Qianjiang Prefecture and Tianmen Prefecture will all belong to you. Please help your brother."

Chen Jie frowned after hearing this and said, "Brother, this is not appropriate."

"What's inappropriate? You and I are brothers. As I said just now, what's mine is yours. So, these two prefectures are given to you. I, your brother, will not take care of internal affairs or governance, but only military affairs. You only need to give me a batch of food every month as military pay. Don't worry about the rest. I will take care of it for you."

After hearing what Ni Wenjun said, Chen Jie fell into deep thought. This deal could be done.

Although Ni Wenjun is his elder brother, brothers should settle accounts clearly. His elder brother is not good at governance, but he is very good at it. Moreover, getting the control of two state capitals at once is a big deal.

It is equivalent to doubling one's own strength out of thin air.

And to put it bluntly, I am in charge of Ni Wenjun's logistics, and Ni Wenjun is only responsible for fighting. Isn't this equivalent to saying that Ni Wenjun is my general?
In this way, he would own three prefectures, and if anything happened, Brother Ni would take the lead, and he could develop secretly.

This is in line with my own six-word mantra of storing up food, building high walls, and slowly becoming king!
Thinking of this, Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said, "Brother Ni, I can help you. We are brothers. But my identity needs to be kept secret. After all, I still have to do something for the court."

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun said, "Don't worry, brother. Old Peng has ordered that unless you reveal your identity voluntarily, none of us is allowed to reveal your identity."

"Didn't you see that my brother came to see you with his face covered?"

Chen Jie said: "Very good, in that case, I will agree to your request, brother. I will take over Qianjiang Prefecture and Tianmen Prefecture. Also, regarding your troops, I have also figured out where to find them."

"Oh?"

Ni Wenjun looked at Chen Jie, and Chen Jie said, "Brother, I will go to Qianjiang Prefecture with you tomorrow. For the rest, just follow my plan."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, brother."

As Ni Wenjun spoke, he immediately felt relaxed. It was a difficult trip to come here, after all, Huangzhou Prefecture had also suffered a great disaster. He thought he could not borrow any grain, but unexpectedly, he got 400,000 dan of grain from Chen Jie.

Chen Jiusi is truly a good brother, and it is not in vain that I love this younger brother so much.

After relaxing, Ni Wenjun suddenly felt the urge to drink. He looked at Chen Jie and said, "Jiu Si, it's almost noon. Shall we have a drink?"

Chen Jie immediately smiled and said, "I have already arranged for someone to prepare for you, brother. By the way, brother, is there anyone you want to see when you come to Huangzhou Prefecture this time?"

Ni Wenjun frowned and said, "Who? I just want to see you, brother!"

Chen Jie said: "Woman."

Ni Wenjun's face suddenly became strange. Chen Jie saw that Ni Wenjun was in trouble and said with a smile: "Brother, are you hiding something from me?"

Ni Wenjun said: "No, no, you, don't ask nonsense, the girl may not like me."

When Chen Jie heard that there was a story, he smiled and said, "Brother Ni, your girl is in Mianshui, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Ni Wenjun immediately felt embarrassed, and then asked: "Do you have any wine? Do you want to drink?"

Chen Jie couldn't help laughing when he saw Ni Wenjun like this. He is really a straight man.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie invited Ni Wenjun to enter their inner courtyard pavilion to drink, and soon the maid brought the wine and food.

Chen Jie started drinking with Ni Wenjun.

At the same time, he whispered to the maid Cui Ju: "Go tell the lady that Brother Ni is here."

Cui Ju understood what he meant and went downstairs immediately.

At this time in the backyard, Su Yunjin was talking to a woman. The woman was wearing a red dress with a blue collar and a floral skirt. She was chatting with Su Yunjin very enthusiastically. They were old acquaintances.

That’s right, this person is Hua Sanniang, one of the Thirteen Guardians of Mianshui County back then.

Hua Sanniang was originally in Mianshui and did not follow others to the north, but half a month ago, Su Yunjin sent her a letter saying that Ni Wenjun had come to Hubei and had looked for Chen Jiusi, and hoped that her sister-in-law would come soon.

After receiving the news, Hua Sanniang immediately put down all the work at hand and rushed straight to Huangzhou Prefecture.

At this time Cui Ju rushed in and looked at Su Yunjin and Hua Sanniang who were talking.

Seeing Cui Ju's anxiousness and hurrying, Hua Sanniang knew her from the beginning, so she said, "Girl, Sister Su is pregnant, so you should be careful when you walk, don't bump into anything."

Seeing this, Cui Ju looked at Hua Sanniang and said, "Yes, Madam Hua taught you right."

Su Yunjin was still lenient towards the servants. At this time, he looked at Cuiju and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Cui Ju saw this and immediately said, "Well, the master asked me to come back and bring a message, saying that Ni Wenjun, Master Ni is here."

"what!"

Teng!
After hearing this, Hua Sanniang sat up suddenly, looking surprised.

Su Yunjin glanced at Hua Sanniang and saw that this carefree and fearless sister Hua was actually nervously twisting her clothes.

Seeing this, Cui Ju lowered her head and muttered to herself: You are still blaming me, but in the end, you are even more unstable than me.

Muttering this, Su Yunjin stood up and said with a smile: "Sister Hua, Brother Ni is here, it's a good time for your family to reunite, let's go!"

"Ah, I'm not going!"

Hua Sanniang was a little resistant.

Su Yunjin saw this and said, "What's wrong, Sister Hua? You seem to be a little weird. Are you and Brother Ni Wenjun fake?"

"Fake, what's fake about it? He, he... has seen someone's body..."

……

Small courtyard pavilion.

"Brother Ni, what's going on between you and Hua Sanniang?"

Chen Jie asked, and Ni Wenjun smiled bitterly and said, "You are young and frivolous..."

After listening to Ni Wenjun's story, Chen Jie finally understood the love-hate relationship between Ni Wenjun and Hua Sanniang.

When Ni Wenjun came down from the mountain, he was at the critical moment of practicing the Sixth Floor. His cultivation level regressed severely. At the same time, his family was harmed by a villain, who killed the county magistrate, Darughachi, and kidnapped Princess Zhao Ya.

Then the imperial court issued a wanted order, and Hua Sanniang, as the big sister of the black market, was ready to capture Ni Wenjun and get his enormous wealth.

Unexpectedly, during the pursuit, Hua Sanniang was assassinated by the Five Poison Sect members who went to pursue Ni Wenjun. Ni Wenjun couldn't bear it and saved Hua Sanniang, but she was severely poisoned at that time.

It must be placed in a bucket of water, naked, and then the poison must be forced out in order to survive.

Then Ni Wenjun prepared to take off Hua Sanniang's clothes.

Hua Sanniang refused to comply, saying that if her innocence was seen by others, she would never be able to get married.

Ni Wenjun said: What time is it, why are you still talking about this? Saving your life is the most important thing.

Hua Sanniang still disagreed, which made Ni Wenjun angry and he said, "At worst, I'll just marry you!"

Hua Sanniang was stunned at that time and gave up resisting.

"I thought I had amazing self-control, but I never thought... Hey, let's not talk about this anymore, let's drink, drink..."

When Ni Wenjun thought of the past events, he felt quite emotional. He was impulsive and ruined the girl's innocence. He didn't know how the girl was doing now.
Whether she was married or not, and had a child, it had been two years after all.

Chen Jie was drinking at this time, but he saw Su Yunjin bringing Hua Sanniang here not far away and bringing her a pot of wine.

The corners of my mouth couldn't help but curl up.

At this time, Hua Sanniang was seen walking towards this side very awkwardly, while Ni Wenjun was still immersed in the recollection of the past events and couldn't extricate himself.

Just then Hua Sanniang walked over and was stunned when she saw Ni Wenjun.

Eye circles are red.

Chen Jie glanced at her, and said with a smile on his face, "Ahem...what are you standing there for? Hurry up and pour some wine for Mr. Ni."

Hua Sanniang's hands froze when she heard that, and she glared at Chen Jie fiercely.

Su Yunjin, who was not far away, saw this and couldn't help but laugh, "My husband is so bad."

At this time, Hua Sanniang dared not say anything but was angry. She immediately came to Ni Wenjun's side, picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Ni Wenjun.

Ni Wenjun was already lost in his memories and didn't look up, but when he saw someone pouring him a drink, he glanced at the person's hand.

But when he saw it, Ni Wenjun froze.

These are a pair of hands as white as jade, but there is a faint scar at the base of the thumb, a plum blossom mark.

He remembered these hands.

At this moment, he suddenly raised his head and his eyes met Hua Sanniang's. For a moment, both of them were stunned and speechless.

But his eyes were reluctant to leave for a moment, as if they were grown together.

At this moment, there was no one else in their eyes except each other!
Seeing this, Chen Jie quietly stood up, and then walked to a nearby place. Seeing Su Yunjin watching the excitement here, he smiled and said, "Give them two some space."

"It's really unbearable that I, as the younger brother, have to worry about the love life of this elder brother and sister-in-law."

Su Yunjin rolled her eyes at Chen Jie and said, "Husband~"

Chen Jie laughed and said, "Haha, good, let's go back to the house. Cui Ju, go and clean up the east wing. It seems that Big Brother Ni can't leave today, hahaha..."

……

The next morning.

Chen Jie practiced three sets of boxing in the yard and was sweating all over. Then he saw Ni Wenjun walking out from the east wing with a look of high spirits on his face.

Obviously, yesterday was a very pleasant day.

Seeing this, Chen Jie said, "Brother Ni is really in high spirits today as he is celebrating a happy occasion."

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun waved his hand and said, "Jiu Si, stop teasing me. If it weren't for you, Sanniang and I wouldn't know how to meet. You are my brother's great benefactor in this matter!"

Chen Jie heard this and said, "Haha, brother, you are being too polite. You and I are brothers. I already have two wives and my child is about to be born. Seeing you always alone, I feel bad."

Ni Wenjun said: "You kid, you only know how to joke with your brother."

Chen Jie said: "By the way, this time, will my sister-in-law go with you to take up the post or what?"

Ni Wenjun said, "I have to ask you for help. I am going out to train soldiers. Life in the army is very hard. Besides, it is not appropriate for Sanniang to follow me among a group of men. So I want her to live with you, so that she can take care of my sister-in-law. What do you think?"

Chen Jie heard this and said, "That's great. My wife even said she hasn't spent enough time with her sister-in-law. It's a good opportunity for them to keep each other company."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you, brother."

"That's ridiculous. What's mine is yours, and you can take whatever's mine, except for my wife!"

Ni Wenjun smiled and said, "You kid."

The two of them joked that leaving Hua Sanniang here would actually be good for Chen Jie. After all, if Hua Sanniang was here, Ni Wenjun would have to come and look after her often, and then his wife and family would definitely be safer.

This is equivalent to buying a safety insurance for the ladies.

Ni Wenjun said, "Jiu Si, let's leave the family affairs alone for now. Let's talk about business. How should I recruit soldiers and horses next?"

After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Brother Ni, this is not difficult. But before that, let me ask you, Brother Ni, do you want to find a group of people with average fighting ability but high enough loyalty, or a group of people with strong fighting ability but who can only be subdued by thundering means, to be your subordinates?"

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun asked, "Is there any explanation for this?"

Chen Jie said: "The first one has average combat power but high loyalty. That's a blank sheet of paper. We can paint as we please."

"But if you want to find someone with high combat effectiveness, they may not be loyal. Only if you can subdue them, will they obey you!"

Ni Wenjun heard this and said, "Haha, then I will definitely choose the second one. Is there anything I can't suppress? I want to see how tough it is."

Chen Jie said: "Haha, that's it, it's simple, big brother, listen to me, today we will go to Qianjiang Prefecture first, and then post a notice to recruit the gang disciples of Qianjiang Prefecture to join the army. Huajin will be given the position of centurion, Baodan realm will be given the position of deputy centurion, Langyan realm will be given the position of centurion, and Changhong realm will be given the position of captain!"

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun said, "Jiu Si, is there anyone who can come? After all, who doesn't want to be free and easy? Who wants to be a soldier and be controlled by others?"

Chen Jie laughed and said, "Haha, if they don't want to, how can they do that? Brother Ni, do you know how our Qinglong Guard was formed?"

Ni Wenjun was stunned. He knew that Chen Jie's Qinglong Guard was a 3,000-man force with super combat effectiveness. To be honest, he was a little envious.

Chen Jie said: "All of them are the elites of the major sects in Huangzhou Prefecture. There are elders, deputy leaders, and the core disciples of each sect. If they form an army, as long as they are well managed, how can their combat effectiveness be poor?"

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun said, "Jiu Si, do you mean that I should also form an army composed entirely of the elders and disciples of these sects?"

Chen Jie smiled and said, "Is there anything wrong with that?"

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun's eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled and said, "I understand. Jiusi, you are really smart."

"But brother, I can wipe out the whole family, but if these people want to run, I can't catch them!"

Chen Jie laughed and said, "Don't worry, brother. I will bring the Azure Dragon Guards to cheer you up."

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun was overjoyed: "Haha, good, good, I have Jiu Si to help me. I really chose the right person. I will listen to Jiu Si."

Chen Jie said, "Well, Brother Ni, you and I brothers don't talk about these things."

The two of them discussed it, and in the afternoon, Chen Jie put on an iron mask, and the senior members of the Azure Dragon Guard also put on masks. They didn't want people to know that they were involved in this operation. So they all covered their faces with masks to avoid exposing their whereabouts.

Ni Wenjun looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Jiu Si, what are you doing?"

Chen Jie said: "Brother Ni, keep it secret!"

Ni Wenjun smiled and said, "Brother, if you cover your face with this iron mask, then I can't call you brother, 94?"

Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said, "Brother Ni, from now on I will call you General Ni when we are outside, and you can call me Tiemian. I am the General Zhengdong under your command, Tiemian."

Ni Wenjun said: "Iron Face, all right, I'll call you Iron Face!"

After saying that, the group set out directly from Huangzhou Prefecture and headed straight for Qianjiang Prefecture.

The two provincial capitals were not too far apart, and this troop was composed of elite disciples at the lowest level of the Flesh Training Stage, so they were very fast.

We arrived at Qianjiang Prefecture in the evening.

At that time, the entire Qianjiang Prefecture was controlled by the followers of the Maitreya Sect, who were directly under the command of Peng Yingyu. If Ni Wenjun could stabilize the situation in Qianjiang Prefecture, they would retreat.

Therefore, they only maintained basic stability in Qianjiang Prefecture.

Chen Jie and his team arrived at Qianjiang Prefecture and posted notices overnight.

The next morning, the people of Qianjiang Prefecture woke up and saw the notice posted on the city wall!
【Notice】

[Respectfully inform all the martial arts colleagues in Qianjiang Prefecture, the founding of the Tianyuan Empire is a thousand-year plan. Now I will give you a way to the sky. My Tianyuan Empire, Qianjiang Prefecture, is recruiting soldiers. Those who meet the requirements can come and join the army. ]

[1. Those who are healthy, have no diseases, and are from good families can join the army and receive generous benefits]

[2. All martial artists can also participate. You can get corresponding positions based on your personal strength. Liujin Realm is granted as team leader, Tiegu Realm as small flag officer, Huajin Realm as centurion, Baodan Realm as deputy centurion, Langyan Realm as centurion, Changhong Realm as captain, and can get guidance on martial arts cultivation from experts in Ronglu Realm! ]

[Hope, all colleagues from Qianjiang Prefecture, please come and sign up quickly. Are there any special people who can be kings, dukes, generals or ministers? You can be appointed as a duke or general today. First come, first served! ]

Post the notice.

Suddenly the whole Qianjiang Prefecture was in an uproar. The people looked at the registration notice and shook their heads. Who would want a good family to join the army? However, some families could not make ends meet and came to sign up.

Since this year is a year of famine, many people signed up, so the recruitment of ordinary soldiers is quite good.

But people in the industry all scoffed at the notice.

Qianjiang Prefecture Goldfish Gang.

The gang leader read the notice and burst into laughter.

"These Maitreya cult fools are hilarious. They really think they are the imperial court and are even recruiting soldiers. Only fools would serve them."

After hearing what the leader of the Goldfish Clan said, the leader of the Bilang Clan said, "Jiu Si, his Maitreya Cult is just a branch of the Zoroastrianism. The Laughing Buddha Peng Yingyu is quite capable, but who is this Ni Wenjun? How dare he act so pretentiously and even want to recruit us? I have food and drink in Qianjiang Prefecture, especially since the imperial court was wiped out. Do you know how much I have earned from this war?"

The leader of the Iron Sword Sect looked at the leader of the Bilang Sect and asked, "Old Sun, how much do you earn?"

The leader of the Bilang Sect then stretched out a hand, revealing a hand with five fingers. The leader of the Tiejian Sect asked, "So many?"

The leader of the Iron Sword Sect flipped his hands over. The leader of the Goldfish Sect also became nervous and asked the leader of the Bilang Sect, "How come you make so much money?"

The leader of the Bilang Sect laughed and said, "This is called the Maitreya Sect planting trees. Let's enjoy the shade. Hahahaha..."

The leader of the Goldfish Sect said, "That's right. We don't want to be slaves for Ni Wenjun, who is just staring at us. I have wine and meat every day, and beautiful women waiting on me. Why should I be a poor soldier and be controlled by others? It's boring, boring!"

The leader of the Iron Sword Sect said, "That's right. No matter who is the emperor in this world, how can they control us? Hahaha, we should eat when we are supposed to, and drink when we are supposed to. No matter who is the emperor, we are all local emperors in Qianjiang. Who can control us?"

"That's right. At worst, if someone comes, we can just give them some gold and silver as gifts, just like feeding the dogs, right?"

"That's right, feed the dog, hahahaha..."

After seeing Ni Wenjun's notice, the entire Qianjiang Prefecture became unusually calm. None of the major sects came to surrender, but a few small sects did come.

Ni Wenjun took a look and felt that their strength was average, but no matter how small they were, they were still weak, so he directly formed a new team and they became Ni Wenjun's first batch of soldiers.

Ni Wenjun looked at the empty conscription square and said to Chen Jie, "Jiu, ahem, my dear Iron-faced brother, it's been a whole day and none of these big sects have come to join us. It seems like they are determined not to give us face."

After hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said, "Brother Ni, this person always fails to see the situation clearly, and is unwilling to give up his wealth easily. But it doesn't matter. After today, we will teach them a lesson!"

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun said, "Okay, let's wait for them for a day. By the way, Jiu Si, it's getting late. I don't think anyone will come. Let's go back!"

After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Okay, then take a good rest and come back tomorrow to deal with these ignorant people."

As the two were talking, a voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Is this where the conscription is?"

When the two heard it, they looked over and saw a man coming in. This man was tall and strong, with dark skin, bright eyes, and was wielding a mountain axe in his hand. He looked like a brave man.

Ni Wenjun took a liking to this guy at first sight. Chen Jie also looked at this man, his eyes slightly focused. He turned out to be a master in the Wolf Smoke Realm.

The man walked into the yard, looked around and asked, "Who is in charge?"

Chen Jie took a step back and made room for Ni Wenjun. Ni Wenjun walked over and looked at the big black guy and said, "What's your name, black guy? Are you here to join the army?"

The big black man took a step forward and said, "My last name is Zeng, my nickname is A Niu, and my real name is Wanzhong!"

"I heard that you have a master here who can teach me martial arts, so I came to see if you are a liar."

"hehe?"

After hearing this, Ni Wenjun looked at Chen Jie and asked, "What do you think of this black guy?"

Chen Jie smiled and said, "He is a pretty good general!"

Ni Wenjun said: "Hei Si, you are right, we are recruiting soldiers here, do you want to join the army or do something else?"

The black servant said, "I heard that you have a master here, so I came to see him. If you can beat me, I will obey you and join your army. If you can't beat me, I won't play with you!"

"Hahahaha... Great, that feels good!"

After hearing what the black fellow said, Ni Wenjun couldn't help but burst into laughter, and then looked at Chen Jie and said, "What do you think, Tiemian?"

Chen Jie said, "Since this brother A Niu wants to compete, then Ni Shuai should play with him."

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun looked at the black man and said, "Black man, I'll give you a hand. As long as you can get me out of this circle, you win!"

At this time, Ni Wenjun stretched out his right foot and drew a circle on the ground, which is called drawing a circle on the ground.

Then he stood there and held out a hand.

The black man saw this and said, "Can I use an axe? My fists and feet are not very strong!"

Ni Wenjun laughed and said, "Okay, whatever you want!"

Hearing this, the black servant said immediately: "Okay, then, I will really chop him off. If he chops him to death, don't blame me!"

After saying this, the black man spat on his hands twice, rubbed them, and the next moment he swung the axe and chopped at Ni Wenjun: "Catch that thing!"

As he said this, he swung the axe fiercely at Ni Wenjun.

At this moment, one could see that the axe was emitting a terrifying axe force!
Seeing this, Ni Wenjun's eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Okay, you have some tricks. It's interesting to win over such people."

At this time, Ni Wenjun stretched out a hand, looked at the huge axe that was split open, and flicked it lightly.

when!
With a loud bang, the black guy was shocked and took several steps back.

"So powerful! Take another blow from me, whirlwind!"

After saying this, the black man began to rotate the axe in his hand with his waist as the axis, and then attacked Ni Wenjun.

Seeing this, Ni Wenjun smiled slightly, looked at the axe coming towards him, then reached out and gently pinched the axe body.

Hei Si suddenly found that the axe in his hand could not move, as if it was embedded in gold and iron.

Ni Wenjun said: "This isn't the only thing you can do!"

The black servant was immediately furious when he heard this, and then shouted angrily: "How dare you look down on me, ah!"

Moumoumou......

Immediately afterwards, the black man let out a loud shout, and the next moment, a huge black buffalo shadow appeared behind him.

Then he slashed at Ni Wenjun fiercely.

Ni Wenjun nodded and said, "That's about right."

As he said that, he casually swung a punch, and in an instant, a huge fist shadow directly hit the black man's axe, and then the black man flew backwards.

With a loud bang, the earth wall on the side collapsed.

Cough cough cough...

At this time, the black guy was seen spitting blood and looking very embarrassed.

Chen Jie walked over when he saw this. He thought, “We finally got someone to join the army. We should not let him get beaten again.”

"Hey, brother Niu, are you okay?"

Chen Jie squatted over and was about to help the black man. At this time, the black man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Ni Wenjun with fear on his face.

"Amazing."

Seeing Chen Jie wearing a mask, he frowned and said, "You are so dishonest. I hate people like you the most. Take off the mask!"

After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the iron mask on Chen Jie's face.

But at this time Chen Jie grabbed his wrist.

When the black guy saw me, he grabbed my wrist and said, "I'm afraid of you. An old cow weighing hundreds of pounds can drag itself by pulling its tail, so why should I be afraid of a skinny and weak guy like you?"

But when he tried to force it, he found that his arm was clamped by the skinny and weak guy in front of him and he couldn't move at all.

Ah!
He still didn't believe it, and said through gritted teeth: "I must take off your mask today."

As he spoke, the image of the black bull suddenly appeared behind him with his internal energy.

Moumoumou......

Chen Jie remained calm despite the roars of cows. He used Changchun Kung Fu and his arm strength instantly doubled.

After Hei Si found that his arm was grabbed by Chen Jie, no matter how hard he struggled or how hard he tried, he didn't move at all. Even Chen Jie's body didn't shake at all.

Only then did Heisi realize that he might have hit a wall.

"Uh-huh!"

When Chen Jie saw that he had no strength left, he suddenly increased his strength, immediately making the black guy scream.

"Ahhh, it hurts, it hurts so much!"

"Brother Niu, what's wrong with you? What's your name?"

Ah Niu said, "Brother Tiemian, I was wrong. I give in. I give in!"

"Let go, it's going to break! It's going to break!"

Ah Niu said in a crying voice, Chen Jie heard it and said, "What's the point of being convinced? Brother Ah Niu, get up quickly."

Chen Jie withdrew his strength and immediately pulled Ah Niu up. When Chen Jie let go, Ah Niu immediately covered his wrist and said, "It hurts. It hurts so much."

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun came over and looked at him and said, "Hei Si, do you have anything else to say? Are you willing to join us?"

Ah Niu heard this and said, "I accept it. I will follow you from now on. However, I have a big appetite and I cannot live without a full meal."

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun looked at Chen Jie and said, "Brother Aniu, our meals are all provided by Tiemian. If you want to have enough food, you have to beg him!"

Chen Jie immediately laughed: "Ni Shuai is joking."

However, the black servant said seriously: "Then I will ask Brother Tiemian to take care of me from now on."

Chen Jie smiled and said, "You're quite sweet. Okay, I'll make sure you have enough to eat in the future."

"Thank you, Brother Ironface."

Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said, "General Ni, how about letting Brother A Niu be your deputy general from now on?"

Ni Wenjun said: "Well, it's okay."

In this way, Zeng Aniu officially became the first general under Ni Wenjun.

At dinner in the evening, Chen Jie and Ni Wenjun witnessed how big of an appetite this Ah Niu had. Others used bowls to eat, but he used a basin and just used a rice spatula to swirl the rice around. Chen Jie was amazed by what he saw.

I couldn't help but ask, "Brother Aniu, what did you do before? Can you support yourself?"

Hearing this, Ah Niu raised his head and smiled naively, "I'm a woodcutter!"

Later, Chen Jie learned that there used to be a big gang in the local area called the Chai Gang, which bullied the people and did all kinds of evil. All those who cut wood had to pay them, otherwise they were not allowed to cut wood.

Ah Niu was born with supernatural powers. Later, he followed a white-bearded old man in the mountains and learned a set of axe techniques. After coming out of the mountains, he was bullied by his former Chai Gang.

Then Aniu swung his axe and rushed into the Chai Gang, and chopped down the former leader of the Chai Gang as if he were firewood.

From then on, the Chai Gang disbanded because this guy could only chop wood and kill people, and couldn't do anything else.

Moreover, he was not under any supervision and could only live in Qianjiang Prefecture. Then he saw that there were soldiers being recruited here, so he came to take a look.

And then that was it.

Ni Wenjun likes this black guy very much, he says he is a true person.

And this Ah Niu also respected Ni Wenjun very much. After all, he had been beaten up by him. But the one who was most convinced was Chen Jiusi, because he didn't understand why such a skinny and weak guy had such powerful strength in his body. It was simply unbelievable.

After conquering Aniu, Ni Wenjun was in a good mood.

But the other sects in the city were ignorant, and Ni Wenjun was very angry.

Chen Jie, however, was somewhat expectant. Why did Chen Jie have to follow Ni Wenjun to Qianjiang? The reason was very simple. Ni Wenjun needed to recapture these sects, which would require a large number of people to be killed.

After the killing spree, Chen Jie gained two benefits.

The first is to eliminate local gangs, and then allow the fishing gang to quickly occupy Qianjiang Prefecture and gain the greatest benefits here.

Then use the fishing gang to govern the place, which will be similar to Huangzhou Prefecture. By then, there will be enough food to feed Ni Wenjun's army, and even more money.

Moreover, Chen Jie was also planning to launch a reservoir project here. By then, the wasteland would be turned into fertile fields and he would be able to make a fortune. At that time, giving Ni Wenjun a little bit of food and salary every month would not be a problem at all.

This is Chen Jie’s biggest source of benefit.

In addition to this, Chen Jie was interested in the martial arts secrets of these sects.

Chen Jie has tasted the sweetness once. You know, the last time, when the two elders, Turtle and Crane, went on a killing spree in Huangzhou Prefecture, Chen Jie directly collected a large number of martial arts secrets. These martial arts secrets were the source of the martial arts secrets of the later Qinglong Guard, including the White Tiger Guard and the Black Tortoise Guard.

This allowed many people to choose the martial arts secrets that suited them, and their skills were greatly improved.

In addition to them, Chen Jie also took a fancy to the martial arts secrets of Qianjiang Prefecture. Chen Jie planned to collect all these secrets, and then learn from the strengths of all schools to improve his martial arts.

The third is that Chen Jie wants to find the medicinal materials to break through the Langyan Realm and enter the Changhong Realm to refine the Hongxia Pill.

Chen Jie collected the prescription needed to refine Hongxia Dan in the former Huangzhou Prefecture and the Yuquan Sword Sect.

Following closely behind was Lang Dan, and Chen Jie also tightened his grip in the foggy forest.

Now Chen Jie only needs two ingredients to refine the Hongxia Pill, which are [Seven-Colored Fruit] and [Kunlun Snow Lotus]

As long as he has these two medicines, Chen Jie is confident that he can refine the Hongxia Pill, thereby improving his strength and entering the Changhong Realm.

After all, the Wolf Smoke Realm’s strength is no longer enough on this battlefield.

And at this dinner, Chen Jie accidentally heard the leader of a small sect who wanted to please Ni Wenjun say a very important piece of news.

"Ni Shuai, I have an important news to tell you. I originally wanted to offer you a Kunlun Snow Lotus, but the news was leaked and was snatched away by Wang Shouhe of the Goldfish Gang. Otherwise, I would not have come to see you empty-handed today!"

After hearing this, the people from the small gangs present immediately shouted in unison, calling Wang Shouhe of the Goldfish Gang a bastard who bullied people from small gangs like them and was worse than animals.

They all looked like they wanted to eat their flesh alive and drink their blood.

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun waved his hand and said, "The Goldfish Gang can be destroyed with a wave of the hand. It's not worth mentioning, right, Iron Face?"

Ni Wenjun looked at Chen Jie, but Chen Jie was a little distracted, with only one word in his mind: "Kunlun Snow Lotus"
