4. Heavenly Gold
At this time, the revolutionary army of Monkey D. Drago should have already formed a prototype, and should have found many partners, but I don't know why they came to Beihai to travel, and the timing of appearing in Beihai Bell Tower Village was just right.
At night, at dawn, consciousness enters into meditation. Although the sword swung at the bandit today was ordinary, it was very different from the past. At the moment when the cold light appeared, he clearly felt an inexplicable power pouring in, making the arm of the sword unprecedented. smooth.
Judging from the memory of the original owner of this body, although he started practicing swordsmanship at the age of seven and practiced it for seven years at the age of fourteen, all he practiced was only basic swordsmanship, so the swordsmanship inherited by Dawn was not so brilliant, but because The original master of this body has a very good swordsmanship talent, and the foundation of swordsmanship in seven years is extremely solid.
He would like to thank the original owner of this body for the talent, otherwise, no matter how hard he works, he will not be able to achieve much success in swordsmanship in the future. Effort is important, but talent is like a flash of inspiration in human nature. With it, the future will have a broader world in kendo.
However, the strange thing is also here. The sword that slashed at the bandit today seems to have escaped the shackles of swordsmanship for more than ten years in the past. At that moment, something was triggered in the sword.
If this kind of thing is used in this world, it should be the instinct of a swordsman, like breathing.
Dawn stood up from the dim light, opened his empty hands, closed his eyes and felt it for a moment, with a light grip of his breath, the candle light danced slightly. The two knives suddenly swung towards the darkness, and a slight buzzing sounded from his ears. His mind moved, and he finally felt the loosening and the incomparable power coming together again.
The candle flames went out.
"Circle wave."
The old technique is repeated, the scene of the day is repeated again, and the round white light in the night is looming.
The kind of bondage that belongs to swordsmanship seems to be broken in the near future. Dawn thoughtfully, fell into the darkness again, and settled down.
This is his daily practice method. Every morning before dawn and two hours after nightfall, he will enter a state of meditation, and he will perform physical training in the ocean currents in the morning and afternoon.
The bottleneck of strength seems to be about to be broken.
In the spring of 1509 in the Haiyuan calendar, the eleventh year of the Great Voyage Age, the red hair and Luffy met in this year. It was also the same year that the Black Duke Reinhardt Dawn Polkin officially launched his charge horn to the top of the world stage. In a way, the trajectory of the world has changed again.
In the Kingdom of Polkaya, more than a dozen soldiers rushed to the south, headed by a man who was nearly two meters tall. It was not difficult to see his aristocratic status from his clothes.
"Lord Gefu, a few hundred meters ahead is the destination." The soldier came to the noble man.
Lehrman Gefu, one of the nobles of the Polkayan Kingdom.
Ge Fu has the arrogance of a nobleman and is arrogant: "Speed up, everyone's share must not be less."
The soldier looked at Lord Gefu's expression and nodded, then asked, "If they don't turn in, or resist..."
Before he finished speaking, he was stared at by Ge Fu's indifferent eyes: "It's just a pariah, just put to death."
"Yes!" The soldier replied succinctly.
The villagers of Zhonglou Village suddenly panicked as they watched a large group of Kingdom soldiers rush in in a hurry. Ge Fu, headed by him, rode a divine horse and rushed in first. He pulled out the commanding sword of the nobleman from his waist and shouted, "On the order of the king, we will raise the heavenly gold for the supreme Tianlongren, and those who do not have enough share will be executed."
Soldiers followed with swords and spears, and the entire Zhonglou Village suddenly jumped, and everyone was in danger.
Zhonglou Village is on the frontier and is inherently poor. It is all year round fishing for a living. Where can there be a sufficient share of wealth to pay. Even if some people go bankrupt and sell everything,
are not enough.
The collection starts at the beginning of each year, but every year after collection, the property of every household has been looted, and there is no extra spare money at all. If they do not pay, they will either be executed, or they will abandon their property and become wandering refugees.
The nobleman's words caused a great commotion among the villagers. Although they were extremely angry, they dared not speak out, because commoners and nobles were two naturally different classes, and they were insurmountable like heaven and earth.
It's not obvious that they want to die.
"Start." Looking at the angry civilians who were about to spew fire, Ge Fu's indifferent order was issued again, and the soldiers began to recruit from the first house.
"Search from house to house for my lord, if you can't find it, you will be executed directly."
Soldiers began to collect loot.
Judging from the gradually numb expressions of the villagers, this is obviously not the first time to collect Heavenly Gold. At least every year in the collection of Heavenly Gold, the nobles have to kill a lot of people to stand up for their prestige. As a result, no one has dared to resist in recent years. It also saves a lot of trouble for the nobles to collect gold from the sky every year.
"Sir, there is really only so much, and there is really no more." A middle-aged man in the distance wailed and begged for mercy.
"It's been raised since last year, but only these have been raised in a year."
boom!
The gunshot sounded suddenly, as crisp as the first bell after dawn. The man had a blood hole on his forehead and died on the spot. Ge Fu inserted the short musket into his waist, his eyebrows twisted into a cloud. He was obviously in a bad mood. As a noble nobleman, he couldn't even respond to the most basic collection of gold from the sky.
"Damn pariah."
"Lowly pariah."
"Go to death." Ge Fu's expression was almost twisted, and he roared furiously.
He is cruel, vicious, arrogant, and contains all the ugly collections of the nobles. In that fat face, crooked eyes, and yellow teeth, there are four big characters written: Despair of conscience.
Bang bang bang.
After several gunshots, Ge Fu vented his anger, and it wasn't until he killed a few villagers that his mood improved slightly.
The villagers were terrified and did not dare to resist. They watched several people die. This scene has happened many times in the past. Some people tried to resist, but all those who resisted were sentenced to death.
This world is really unfair. It seems that since birth, the nobles have the power of life and death over them.
The looting and looting continued, and the villagers began to flee, with the piercing sound of knives piercing their skin.
No one can stop, who will save us...
village head!
Several villagers running wild saw an old man on crutches staggering towards the nobles and hurriedly called to stop him, but the old man did not stop.
"Lord noble, I beg you, our Bell Tower Village is too poor, we really can't get enough gold in the sky." The old man walked to Lehrman Gefu and knelt down.
"Can't take it?" Ge Fu suddenly became furious: "If you can't take it, die."
He is in charge of the celestial gold collection in the border area on the southern coast of Polkayan. If the collection cannot be completed, then the rest will need to be made up by himself. He is not willing.
The village chief replied tremblingly: "Sir, even if you kill us, you really won't be able to get the share of the heavenly gold you want."
"If you don't die, then I will kill you." Ge Fu pulled out the musket and pulled the trigger.
boom……
The sound of the gunfire was shocking and piercing, and the ending was floating around, and the scene suddenly fell silent.
The village chief fell silently to the ground.
Ge Fu laughed arrogantly: "Hahahaha, look, this will be the fate of all of you, pariahs, slaves, have you seen the fate of your companions? Hurry up and raise the heavenly gold for my lord, or they will all be executed."
"The collection will be completed today."
The villagers who had not had time to escape were stunned and stunned, and one of them suddenly ran after the nobles with an uncontrollable expression.
Wow wow... Dad, I want Dad. The little girl stood in the way of the nobleman and cried.
Ge Fu raised his musket high and aimed it at the little girl.
Who will save her, who will save her. The emotionally out of control villager shouted in his heart, but his body seemed to be suppressed by the fear of death, and he remained indifferent.
