Chapter 38 The Strength of the Bai Family(1/2)
Walking all the way from Fengcheng County, Chen An was able to see a lot of scenery.
In the past, he didn't feel it when he was in Fengcheng County, but after actually leaving Fengcheng County, Chen An realized that what Bai Qing said was not false.
Compared with the prosperity of other places, Fengcheng County is indeed a poor and remote place. Although there are many products everywhere, it is not a prosperous place.
The economy and the number of warriors there cannot be compared with other places.
Of course, these two aspects are related to each other in some cases.
The more developed the economy, the more various resources are gathered, the more abundant they are, and the number of warriors they can support will naturally be greater.
And only warriors with a sufficient number of bases can give birth to stronger warriors.
Therefore, the more prosperous a place is, the more warriors it has and the more powerful it is.
Regarding this, Chen An already discovered this not long after leaving Fengcheng County.
The further north you go, the more people are everywhere, and the same is true for warriors.
The big families here are also ordinary. In addition to daily business, most of them also practice martial arts and pass it on to their children.
More than half a month later, Chen An came to a new place.
Shangyuan County.
Fengcheng County belongs to Chiyuan County, which can be regarded as a corner of Chiyuan County, but Shangyuan County is a very prosperous place, even among the nine counties of Liang Kingdom, it is in the upper middle.
Such a place cannot be compared with Fengcheng County.
Chen An had already felt this as soon as he arrived here.
Compared with Fengcheng County, the roads here are obviously wider and there are more people everywhere.
Chen An randomly found a few people, and after getting to know them, he found that natural disasters had also occurred here in the past few years, and many places had lost crops, but the surrounding areas did not seem to be greatly affected.
People here are generally richer, and even if there is a natural disaster, civilians everywhere can still survive.
"Compared with those natural disasters, it is the mysterious things that are more harmful to people..."
Walking on the road with Chen An, Mr. Song sighed: "The evil in some places is very strong and has killed many people..."
"No one will care?"
Chen An asked.
There are also many mysterious things in Fengcheng County, but the scope is basically small, and various gangs are responsible for solving these things.
For example, hall masters like Mei An are usually responsible for solving these problems.
I thought that such a situation would not happen in a prosperous place like Shangyuan County, but listening to Mr. Song's tone, the intrigue here might be even more terrifying.
"Even if you want to take care of it, someone will do it."
Mr. Song smiled and then explained in detail to Chen An.
It turns out that Yingui's strength is not stable either.
This kind of thing is often the most fragile when it first appears. At this time, it may not require any warriors to take action. Some fragile and sinister things can be solved by a few strong men.
For example, the rumored zombies that transform into corpses may sound scary, but before they transform again and again, only a few strong men can burn them.
But the more spooky things appear, there are always things that are missed.
As for things like intrigue, as long as they are not solved at the beginning, it will become more and more troublesome as more and more people are killed.
If a warrior wants to become stronger, he still needs to practice hard and temper himself desperately before he can do it, but it is very easy for him to be cunning.
Just kill people.
Oh, and sometimes killing isn't even necessary.
On the way here, Chen An heard something.
It is said that there is a mysterious creature that turns into a corpse and hides on the grassland. It does not kill people, but usually targets ordinary wild beasts outside.
Transformed zombies are just that to humans, but to those beasts in the wild, this is a dimensionality reduction blow.
It didn't take long for this conspiracy to get out of hand, and it was said that it took a lot of effort to suppress it.
From this we can see these mysterious characteristics.
Fengcheng County is too remote.
This is a disadvantage, but sometimes it is also an advantage.
The place is remote and the economy is backward, which means there are not many people here.
It just so happens that there are a lot of gangs inside.
As soon as the conspiracy appears, these gangs will crush your bones and scatter them into ashes (burn them all).
But in Shangyuan County, the situation is different.
Compared with Fengcheng County, Shangyuan County is too large and has a large local floating population, so it is easy for omissions to occur.
And with the cunning nature, as long as there is an oversight, it will be a big trouble if it is left unattended for a while.
"Originally, the Imperial Court's Yin-Suppressing Division should have handled these matters, but now..."
Mr. Song shook his head and said nothing more.
Chen An naturally understood what he meant.
I don’t know about other places, but in Liang State...
The emperor of Liang Kingdom was almost eliminated, let alone the local government, which basically maintained the status quo.
Aristocratic families control places and evade official offices. Even in corner places like Fengcheng County, gangs are rampant.
Under such circumstances, as the royal power, what power does the Zhenyin Division have to suppress the evil spirits?
Basically nothing to do.
"The people of Liang Kingdom are in dire straits."
Mr. Song couldn't help but sigh.
Chen An smiled and complimented a few words on the side, and then continued chatting, wanting to know more about this place.
After leaving Fengcheng County and coming to Shangyuan County, Chen An basically started all over again. It was impossible not to understand the news.
Looking at Mr. Song in front of him, he asked a question: "I wonder how many masters there are in Shangyuan County?"
"Master?"
Mr. Song smiled and his face gradually became serious: "Now we need to talk about it carefully."
"There are a lot of masters in Shangyuan County. Body-refining warriors like Liu Daomei'an can't be said to be everywhere in Shangyuan County, but they can be counted as quite a few."
"For example, members of the Bai family, as long as they have some qualifications, they can basically achieve the ultimate goal of body refining..."
Good guy.
As expected, the many leaders of the Sanhe Gang have begun to lose value.
It is a rare body refining achievement in Fengcheng County, but it is everywhere in Shangyuan County.
Of course, in reality there is still no comparison.
The many hall leaders of the Sanhe Gang are not ordinary body-refining warriors. Not to mention ruthless characters like Liu Dao, even ordinary hall leaders like Mei An are figures who have emerged from countless corpses.
For such a character, if an ordinary body-refining master comes to him, he probably won't be able to take a few moves, and he is not considered to be on the same level.
"If they are direct descendants of the Bai family, like Miss Qing, they basically have the strength of the inner energy realm. The number of those who have achieved inner energy is slightly less, but there are also..."
Mr. Song continued to talk.
Chen An listened carefully and listened very carefully to these.
Generally speaking, members of a noble family like the Bai family have the opportunity to practice martial arts.
As long as you are qualified and belong to the Bai family, you can be trained to become a warrior.
Of course, most of the people in this world are ordinary people, but as long as they have certain qualifications, it is not difficult to become a body-refining warrior under this training.
These ordinary Bai family members.
As for direct descendants like Bai Qing, the requirements are even higher, and those who excel are in the inner energy realm.
Basically, no one who can become the talker of each branch will have a cultivation level lower than that of Nei Qi Dacheng.
As for the elders within the Bai family, except for a few special cases, most of them are at the level of perfect inner energy.
In fact, there are even many in the Gangqi realm.
This is just the clan elder who is showing off.
Warriors tend to live much longer than normal people. As the Bai family is an aristocratic family and has been passed down for hundreds of years, there must be some old people among them who are still alive and serve as the most critical foundation.
The strength of these people is hard to say.
And what about the strength of the patriarch of the Bai family?
Chen An made a rough estimate and felt his scalp was numb.
To be continued...
