Chapter 141: Transmission of the Head
a few moves. If we could start over, there might not be so many opportunities or chances left.Therefore, his hatred for Chong Xuan Sheng was undeniable.But unexpectedly, I encountered someone who was...The Lord of Yuecheng had been sitting in his study for half an hour. On the desk lay a sandalwood lacquered box, with a faint fragrance emanating from it.
In the inlaid box was the gift sent by the magistrate of Rizhao County.
The city lord of Yueceng sighed again, opening the lacquered box once more. He looked at this "gift" – a human head preserved by Daoist techniques.
Lifelike, it is Qin Nianmin.
Although he managed to escape the city limits of Yuecheng with Jiang Wang's help, he was unable to leave the territory of Rizhao County and was directly blocked by soldiers stationed at all exits.
In a desperate attempt to escape, Qin Nianmin loudly demanded to report to the magistrate of Rizhao County. And indeed, leveraging his grandfather's reputation, he managed to meet with the magistrate. The final outcome... was just as it is now.
What made the Lord of Yueche sigh, was not the head itself, but the price he had to pay for it.
The end of the paragraph.
After staying in Rizhao County for so long, he knew very well the old guy who was the magistrate of Rizhao County.
He sent the severed head over, well-preserved. It was a simple message: "Here's your problem solved. Now you deal with the consequences."
Here's the translation:
Just like Yuecheng's response to the plague was so disastrous, he was only met with a few painless reprimands. The true price paid was hidden away, in the carriages upon carriages of gifts he sent to the county office.
Here comes another head.
The Lord of Yuecheng couldn't stop the pain in his flesh.
This is not a problem that can be solved by a few hundred Tao Yuan stones!
For a moment, he almost wished Qin Nianmin would report him. But that was just a fleeting thought.
“You're saying this old geezer, he’s gone out of his way to cause trouble. First, he tries to send messages, then he tries to file a complaint. He’s doing no good for the country, and he’s not helping anything at all. What’s the point of it all” The Lord Mayor of Yuecheng looked at Qin Nianmin's head and asked with a frown.
The new Commander of the Guard respectfully said, "This commoner's intentions are malicious and difficult to fathom..."
"Mortals in this world, all have something they seek. If they don't seek wealth, they seek fame!" Yuecheng City Lord sneered, "Nothing more than like his father, wanting a reputation for virtue. This seat will see to it that he is innocent before his death, and nameless after!"
He slammed the box shut and roared, “Qin Nianmin, this scoundrel, appears kind on the surface but is wicked at heart. His intentions are evil, unforgivable! He secretly colluded with demonic cultivators, disrupting the plans of Lord Mayor's Mansion and causing the plague to spread! Old Master Qin was driven to death by him!”
This will create a new paragraph tag.
The more he spoke, the angrier he became, as if it were already a settled fact. He slammed his fist on the table and shouted: "Take this traitor's head and display it in every corner of the city! Let this serve as a warning to others!"
“This scoundrel is despicable!” The new captain of the guard showed his superiority over his predecessor in a way that was clear for all to see. He was so enraged, his teeth were itching, and his fury was almost uncontrollable. People even worried that he would be consumed by rage and end up eating Qin Nianmin's head.
Qin Nianmin's head began to circulate throughout the city along with the notice of accusation this morning. At such a critical time in the fight against the plague, to still divert manpower for this kind of thing, one has to say that Yuecheng's lord is indeed a capable person.
Buddhism strongly believes in karma. As the saying goes, "Actions have consequences, and retribution is inevitable."
Perhaps it was retribution - at least for a moment, the city lord himself felt that way.
Because the news of Qin Nianmin's crimes began to spread in the morning, by afternoon, he received a message that sent chills down his spine.
Here is the English translation of the content within the tags:

...in charge of burying City Lord's Mansion Guard Commander Li Yang and two extraordinary constables...all infected with the plague.
Among them, there are extraordinary cultivators.
And this extraordinary cultivator, after falling ill, died within just three hours!
It is worse than what an ordinary person experiences after being infected with the plague.
If Li Yang and the other two's deaths could be attributed to someone using dark magic against them, or perhaps they were infected with a plague after death.
Then the latest afflicted and deceased transcendent cultivator undoubtedly proves that this plague raging across Yang Guo's land has advanced, beginning to harm transcendents.

That is to say, the force that has been most capable of confronting the plague head-on has itself become unsafe!

This means...

This plague, perhaps it is beyond control!
Upon hearing of Li Yang and the other three's demise, the city lord of Yuecheng immediately reported the news to Yangting.
But in fact, he didn't quite believe it himself, after all, isolated examples are hard to prove. And now...
Or perhaps it was an illusion, but Yuecheng's city lord actually felt a burning sensation. He couldn't help reaching out to touch his forehead, but his hand met only icy coldness, completely drenched in sweat.
In Qingyang Town, Dugu Xiaolin hastily prepared a coffin and buried Xi Zichu in a hurry.

>But on his way back, he discovered that the warehouses of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance were being emptied by guards moving large and small packages. He immediately rushed to report to Jiang Wang.
During this critical time of combating the plague, Jiang Wang naturally couldn't allow them to leave.
When he arrived, he stood before the guards of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, barring their way and preventing them from leaving. If not for concern over the reputation of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, he would have likely attacked them already.
As soon as Jiang Wang approached, the bald-headed guard commander immediately shouted, "Sir, young master, General Jiang! Please let us go. We haven't touched any of the supplies in the warehouse. We only brought our own things!"

Seeing that this group of people didn't seem to be causing trouble, Jiang Wang didn't immediately take action. He asked directly, "Why are you leaving suddenly Wasn't the cooperation going well"
"This..." The bald head guard captain of the Sihai Merchant Alliance hesitated for a moment, then said: "We all miss our hometowns very much and really want to go back!"
“If you’re so eager to go home, then why did you leave in the first place I made arrangements with Qian Zhi Shi already. With such a shortage of manpower in town right now, do you expect me to send someone else to guard the warehouse” Jiang Wang said slowly, “Unless you tell the truth, I’m afraid you can’t leave.”

The bald man looked around, gritted his teeth, and leaned closer to Jiang Wang, saying, "Master Jiang, this is top-secret information. Don't spread it! I heard that the plague in Yang Guo has mutated. It's not only infecting ordinary people, but also extraordinary cultivators! You should leave quickly, otherwise, none of us will be able to escape!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Dugu Xia was instantly terrified, her face paling.

Even going forward, he couldn't help but look left and right, keeping some distance from others.
“Who told you that” Jiang Wang frowned instead: “Since it involves classified information, why are the security measures so poor”

The bald man knew that he couldn't walk away without explaining things clearly, and forcing his way out was even less likely to succeed.
Therefore, he leaned closer and whispered, "I have a good brother who serves Money Lord now. This matter is not supposed to be spread... Please don't sell him out."
"He speaks with such conviction," Jiang Wang narrowed her brows. "Where is Qian the steward now"
To be honest... Qian Shi might have already returned to Qi State.
All the big money is gone, run back to Qi!
As one of Qi State's largest merchant guilds, the Four Seas Merchant Alliance was undoubtedly well-connected in terms of information.
Jiang Wangxin knew in his heart that this matter was probably not a lie.
...especially having personally experienced the plague's attack on his body and seen with his own eyes the pieces of the pestilence scattered before him...
Could this plague truly evolve further Or is its advancement merely a result of the catalyst, the pestilence bell, during battle
Could this be the true trump card of the White Bone Dao
>
If this plague truly proves resistant even to extraordinary cultivators, then I fear it will no longer be confined to a single city or county.
